Procedural matter? Can you explain what you mean by this?

Ah. So in the APNIC Open Policy process, the NIRs operate in secret,
making decisions behind closed doors, and then presenting those
decisions to the world. How very open...
Why can't the discussion happen on this mailing list?? That's what it's
for!? As far as I remember, several ideas had been presented, so why are
the NIRs afraid to discuss these ideas in public?
>We can get back with wise answer, I hope.
No one can achieve wisdom when existing in isolation.
