There is a balance to be achieved between an informal process and a rule-based process. Too many rules constrain a process. It creates a rigid structure and can cause more problems. The informal process works because there is an existing practice. Mistakes can happen. That might not be problem because the informality allows people to work things out. I don't think that Alain was suggesting the extreme.

Randy Bush mentioned that he preferred not to comment on the policy proposal itself. As he is an APNIC policy chair, it would have been helpful to the discussion if he did comment. He mentioned some points which deserves further discussion.
