Hello Bertrand

It seems that you completely ignored this discussion recently and didn't answer questions that were put specifically to you. On 06th March it was asked what was taken into consideration in order give consensus on this proposal and you never replied. It was put and reviewed all the amount of objections that has been opened, technical concerns and that the justifications given by the author were not enough to justify the policy. There was also a message contrary to the proposal by the Japanese group and *none* in favor of it, zero.

Only the author replied to this thread defending his proposal but on the subsequent messages on 07th March and on 11th March it was said the question was direct to you but you simply ignored it as if you didn't have to answer or explain anything. You simply thanked the author as if he could answer by yourself. All you mentioned was asking to put things that could improve the proposal, but didn't specifically answered the main point about explaining what was taken into consideration to give consensus to a proposal that has several objections with proper justification and zero support from any community member.

So either you didn't pay attention there was a question for you to explain publicly or you didn't care to answer. Afterwards you just confirmed the proposal had reached consensus without explaining anything further from the recent discussion.

As the duty to give or not consensus to a policy lies exclusively on the chairs it is their duty to explain their reasoning whenever needed and in this case was a case that clearly there was controversy, but at the end seems that you with the Co-Chairs treated it as something usual that didn't even has the need to explain to community the reasoning behind this consensus. It is something concerning in my view and I want to reiterate the need to explain this consensus because as this one that can be any other proposals that may pass despite concerns and problems.

Dear colleagues,

The four-week final comment period for this proposal has ended.

Proposal details, including the full text of the proposal, history, and

During the final comment period there was one objection raised on the consensus process. It was addressed by the Chair and a community member. As consensus for this proposal has been maintained, We formally request that the APNIC Executive Council endorse this proposal.

Once again, thank you for your participation in the APNIC policy
development process.
