The ultimate discussion should be, and will be, is it RIPE net or internet? I am saying the current situation will break network by forbidding change it, and it is network we break, really doesn’t matter where it is which registry it from. We are victims of massive hijacking, many of my space get registered without our knowledge as well, we spend time and money monitoring ripe dB for none authorised registration as well, I wish I don’t have to do it, I wish Afrinic IRR can function properly tomorrow, but until then, now ripe dB is our most visiable solution. I hope we can make effect together to get Afrinic fix their IRR, it is internet, it’s not just “Afrinic people business”, it is all of us’s business, internet is one. And until then, I think there is not enough consensus from the community to implement this change in the future. I would like to ask the chair, how can we ask RIPE to pause this implementation?
