We only seek consensus at face_to_face, and it seems useless to assess the consensus without considering the outcome of the 30 days discussions on the mailing list. The PDP says "30 days before face to face and back for 30 days if no consensus." The PDP is designed to allow large participation in policy development as it is known that few of us can travel to face_to_face. --alain _______________________________________________ rpd mailing list [email protected] https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/rpd
