The main points I raised were the lack of a general reference to the
audit procedure in the IPv6 policy, and the wording of the section
dealing with policy compliance and non-compliance, which has remained
unchanged since 2002 and might be difficult to understand without the
historical context.
for sure, the existing section of policy that you quoted is not well
written and doesn't look like it reflects how ipv6 address resources are
handled. It would benefit from a rewrite.
In terms of other RIPE policy document changes, there's no shortage of
material that could be improved: many of the documents are the product
of organic growth, and show all the signs of it. As a general comment,
my inclination would either be to do a complete top-down rewrite of
specific documents, or else approach rewrites with changes only to small
areas. Otherwise you end up with the risk of minor changes derailing
other, and potentially more important, changes.
