[address-policy-wg] 2015-04 New Version and Impact Analysis Published (RIPE Resource Transfer Policies)

Regarding this policy I think it clearly states in the beginning: "The goal
of this proposal is to create a single document with all relevant
information regarding the transfer of Internet number resources."

I congratulate Erik for it and I think it is very useful to have a single
document that would address all situations. But we have to make it clear.
Is 2015-04's purpose just to better organise information or to change
policies ?

If you would have just done what the goal express I think it would have
been the first policy that would not get only consensus but unanimity.

But when you slip in some changes, then it's a different thing. I agree
that many things are not very clear and that there are things that can be
improved. This however should be debated properly and maybe it should be
done one step at a time through other policy proposals.

To resume, if you would change the policy text to stick to it's goal you'd
have my +100 (as I see it's getting more popular these days than the
classical +1) :)

But since this text brings changes I can only give a -1 for not sticking to
the goal and for bringing changes that should be treated more careful, not
just let's do it quickly however we can and we'll figure out on the way.
Why not make good, permanent changes which are expected by many of the
community.
