Is it the majority view of Indian APNIC Members that this proposal has merit, or is it just a vocal minority?

Maybe India should go down this path, and undertake a 24 month case study for us to all witness if this is a viable model or not and we can then decide if it is a policy that should be adopted throughout the region, or if it becomes an opt-in policy that some specific economies may wish to undertake.


This idea might perhaps have merit; if the majority of Indian APNIC members wish to make this happen, perhaps letting them try it out without unnecessarily burdening the rest of the APNIC region is the path of least resistance.

We've all heard the technical reasons that we believe this proposal won't achieve what is being set out, the fact we're still arguing this despite what appears to be a majority against (based on mailing list traffic, and notwithstanding Busan (which I did not attend, so i've no idea what the discussion was like) suggests that continuing to discuss it here is unlikely to see a consensus.  Is a limited trial the way to either 'sink or swim' with regard to this proposal?

Mark.
