Obviously it means exactly that, if it is a "community" scrutiny, and not a "Lu Heng" scrutiny.

This is kind of the definition of it, innit?

A community scrutiny is not a "community member" scrutiny.  It is a process that has been approved by rough consensus across the community.  Otherwise the board and the NCC would've been overwhelmed with individual requests under the "community scrutiny" disguise.

Your individual concern is your individual concern.

Before pretending that your e-mail is a "community scrutiny", you should've had initiated a proper process in the community and evaluated the outcome, if any.

E.g. organizing a BoF session is an example of a *beginning* of a proper process (to the contrary, and quite notably, submitting a lightning talk candidate is not).  You did not do that.

Another way of seeking confirmation that an issue, which is presumably important to you, is also not nothing for the community is sending an e-mail about this issue to the community mailing list and receiving support in feedback.  You did send such an e-mail 5 days ago, but the support you've received since then is hardly distinguishable from none.

If this is a community request, then the community we're speaking of is basically you, Elad, and in any case no more than 2 more individuals.  Not the RIPE community.
