The problem with an optional "legal-c" like that will be, that in 12 months
we will have a policy proposal that makes it mandatory. We wont get anywhere
with that.

I base this prediction on the fact that we have had exactly the same
discussion before (i distictly remember a RIPE meeting where most of what
you all say in emails here was said at the microphone).

I'm against the proposed policy as it is right now.
