This seems to be at odds with the way policies have been developing  
within the various RIRs, e.g., <http://www.apnic.net/docs/policy/ 
proposals/prop-035-v002.html>, <http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/ 
proposals/2006-01.html>, <http://www.arin.net/policy/proposals/ 
2005_1.html>, and <http://www.afrinic.net/docs/policies/afpol- 
v60604.htm>.

Yes, we are.

be the solution.
