Masato-san,

With the greatest respect for Tomohiro-san and Ruri-san and yourself, I am
very disappointed with your decision to return prop-115 to the list AGAIN
for discussion and for a survey.

You asked for consensus on a Survey and asked who was FOR it - no one (I
can see)... who was AGAINST - no one (I can see).  Your response was "since
there is no objection to have such survey" - BUT there was no support
either!  You've chose to spend money and time of APNICs on something that
no one cares about - at all.

You say below that the proposal did not reach consensus. NO ONE supporting
it - apart from the authors is the definition of consensus - which is that
it is *not* supported. It is also now at its third version and there is
STILL no support. (for history see
https://www.apnic.net/policy/proposals/prop-115)

It had no support even in Japan at APNIC 39 - does this not say something
that a policy in the home country does not even get up?

Masato, why are you keeping this proposal alive? to the point of spending
money and resources on it.  This is starting to smell like you are looking
out for a fellow countryman or APNIC wants it to happen.  I would hope as
Chair this would not be the case, but all indications point to it as you
will not let it die based on the overwhelming lack of support the proposal
has.

I have nothing against this policy as such... I just think that it is an
overhead that the ISPs rather than APNIC needs to do.  I am not against
it... or for it.  But I am against you trying to push along a policy on
life-support until people get so bored someone supports it into existence.

Community... if you support this proposal... then SHOW you do... here...
now.  If you do NOT support it, then please (again) also state that you do
not - before money is spent on it.
