Hello everyone, I submitted the policy in APNIC 10 days back but neither my policy document was posted on the Policy SIG mailing list nor i received any communication from APNIC why it was not posted and what we can do to discuss further on the said subject.
Either APNIC team is too busy or just ignoring the requests. Unfortunately, this is not the first time it is happening with me. At least couple of more times, i have been informed by APNIC support that my request is sent to APNIC EC but after that i didn’t get any feedback from APNIC EC or from anyone else. Don’t know what wrong with APNIC now a days. Do anyone knows what to do now ?
