The problem seems to be more related to that fact that most members of
the RIRs have dayjobs and they increasingly care about running their
own businesses. They have very little spare time to participate in the
policy making process so they have very little choice but to accept
the policy as proposed by the RIR because they don't have the
resources to come up with their own proposals.
