Obviously it means exactly that, if it is a "community" scrutiny, and not a
"Lu Heng" scrutiny.

This is kind of the definition of it, innit?

A community scrutiny is not a "community member" scrutiny.  It is a process
that has been approved by rough consensus across the community.  Otherwise
the board and the NCC would've been overwhelmed with individual requests
under the "community scrutiny" disguise.

Your individual concern is your individual concern.

Before pretending that your e-mail is a "community scrutiny", you should've
had initiated a proper process in the community and evaluated the outcome,
if any.

E.g. organizing a BoF session is an example of a *beginning* of a proper
process (to the contrary, and quite notably, submitting a lightning talk
candidate is not).  You did not do that.

Another way of seeking confirmation that an issue, which is presumably
important to you, is also not nothing for the community is sending an
e-mail about this issue to the community mailing list and receiving support
in feedback.  You did send such an e-mail 5 days ago, but the support
you've received since then is hardly distinguishable from none.

If this is a community request, then the community we're speaking of is
basically you, Elad, and in any case no more than 2 more individuals.  Not
the RIPE community.
