ear Colleagues, I am Satoru Tsurumaki from Japan Open Policy Forum Steering Team..
I would like to share key feedback in our community for prop-140, based on a meeting we organised on 25th Aug to discuss these proposals. In addition to "end site" and “end-user," "customer" is scattered throughout the policy document. An opinion was expressed that it is necessary to organize the overall consistency. (comment details) - The revisions in the current proposal seems not to be sufficient. There seems to be a mixture of "end user" as a general term and "end user" as defined in 2.10. - Isn't the concept of "customer" who "pays" for the numbered resources inappropriate for the policy? Partners who are not customers should also be treated as customers.
