    Depends. IIRC in the past I think I've just supported the proposal and not cared about the arguments behind it or the impact analysis.

[Jordi] This has been my main way to evaluate a proposal always, read the policy text and decide upon that, because at the end, is the only one that can be enforced.
    
    > 2) What if the text in those 3 pieces are presenting contradictions or can be easily be interpreted in different ways?
    
    I would raise those issues and be crystal-clear about where the confusions or ambiguities were. And most likely talk to the WG chairs before taking those concerns to the list.
    
[Jordi]  I’m talking with the chairs about that since yesterday, even if I also think is a debate for the list, not just the chairs.

    Jordi, I think it's not helpful to continue this discussion. If you remain unhappy with the consensus declaration on 2016-04, please use the appeals machinery provided in the PDP instead of wasting everyone's time exploring rat-holes.
    
[Jordi] I think it makes sense to avoid an appeal if we can clarify the situation before that.
