Just for clarity, this is what the PDP says: > [RIPE-642 section 2.2] > At the end of the Discussion Phase, the proposer, with the agreement of the > WG chair, decides whether the proposal will move to the next phase (Review > Phase) or if it should be withdrawn from the RIPE PDP, depending on the > feedback received. This should be done no more than four weeks after the end > of the Discussion Phase. So the chairs need to make up their minds about if they can agree with the proposer. This involves a lot of manual work (as Gert said: analysing the mailing list archives etc) so this takes time. The discussion phase ended on 15 July. And the four week period that is common for that type of decision hasn't expired yet. And even if it had, it says "should be done" not "must be done", so if we stick to the definitions of RFC2119 that timeline may be changed if circumstances require. In short: if you're going to be pedantic please read the relevant documents first. The discussion phase has ended. The microphones are closed. And give your chairs some breathing room to do their (volunteer) jobs properly. Cheers, Sander PS: because I got involved in the discussion and questioned some people's statements to keep the discussion honest I am abstaining on any decisions regarding this proposal to avoid any semblance of conflict of interest. This means Gert is doing all the hard work all by himself...
