</span>This mailing list has a very specific focus: forming of new policies,<br>
and discussion and answering questions about *existing* policies.<br>
<br>
Historic excursions are *not* on-topic, unless it's relevant for an<br>
ongoing policy discussion (which this is not, we'll never return to<br>
that state of IPv4 plentiness - which I already told you).<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think I know we won't return to the state of IPv4 plentiness fairly well, really not needed anyone tell me that.</div><div><br></div><div>But the question was about understanding a long existed concept.</div><div><br></div><div>If such question, in which I believe I do have certain amount of clue about the policy already, was not even allowed to posted in this list. where else on this planet you can discuss and learn RIPE policy(understand past policy are equally important as understand the current one for one to really understand the policy development process)? Are we really only open doors to the person can afford to go to RIPE meeting every time? I find it is almost impossible to learn RIPE policy and discuss it in the real life, no one knows RIPE, my current amount of knowledge are from my 10 plus Ripe meetings and going to training at my company's cost, in which I believe it will be very hard to apply to every one at my age. we already discuss about aging of the RIPE community, we really really need to allow people to ask dum question here but not kicking off anything the list that you think it is no use(and I appreciate your answer of course).</div><div><br></div><div>This subject can concluded by one or few answers on the simple matter, it does not need to be that long. The time you spend on arguing with me about relevance, the question is already concluded.</div><div><br></div><div>And moreover such argument are beyond my question and I am very disappointed I need to spend more time to discuss "can I discuss policy here" rather than to my real question. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
