Again this did not answer my question Gerard. The index page to which
you refer does not have the document that the announcement the secretariat
sent out, unless you and the secretariat were referring to:
http://www.apnic.net/docs/policy/doc-review-policy.html as the document
in question? If so, please just says so. If not, than also provide the
precise URL to which that announcement was indicating or referring to.
If however http://www.apnic.net/docs/policy/doc-review-policy.html
is the document in question it also refers itself to the following which
is contained within the document:
"Form of calls for comments
The announcement and notice for a call for comments will:
identify the document to be revised, or, if no current
document exists, the nature of the
document to be developed;
briefly describe the reasons for the proposed review;
invite comments and suggestions from interested parties;
nominate a review category;
set out a schedule for the review, including deadlines for
comments;
provide URLs for any related documents.
The contents of the final call will be similar to a normal call
for comments, but it will include details of
APNIC’s intention to prepare a final version of the document
for presentation to the Executive Council.
Requesting a further review
If a member believes that any of the objectives in section
4 will not be served by proceeding with a final
call for comments, then they may request further
review of the document, in writing, to APNIC.
If APNIC receives such a request then it may either
announce an additional call for comments (including
the details of the request in the summary of comments),
or decline the request.
If APNIC declines the request, it will provide a written
explanation to the member who made the request.
If the member disputes that explanation then APNIC
will immediately refer the request to the Executive
Council, which will have the final decision as to whether
to proceed with the final call for comments or to
require an additional call for comments."
========= End of copied excerpt
Hence Gerard, the document that the announcement I believe that is
being referred to in and of itself calls for additional review comments as
well as potential comments to additional APNIC documents that
may or may not be found on the APNIC web site. Hence the
cryptic nature of the announcement was certainly in question, as
Jim Fleming also pointed out and which document to which the announcement
was referring to is still in question as well. Therefore it would be less
cryptic if the specific document or proposal being referred to was
specifically pointed to exactly as to it's URL, if existing or located
on the APNIC site, and therefore eliminating potential confusion
to which I originally questioned/requested further clarification of.
Thank you and the secretariat for you cooperation and further
cooperation in this and future matters of such importance to
the stakeholders...
