Grec Here is my reply I am re-sending these responses to Kavouss's comments to the list with two notes: 1. The use of "unanimous" in the preamble was discussed. The reason for this use is to make it clear that the RIRs must act unanimously as the "numbers community" "party" to the agreement. This is language the numbers community feels comfortable with, and it apparently tracks language used in the IANA numbers MoU (but I haven't checked). This verbiage may change as other alternatives are considered, but the concept remains the same. Comments Read my comments in regard with the use of the term Unanimously. If you want to introduce some thing more than of and in addition to Collective , at the maximum use " and by consensus " instead of UNANIMOUSLY 2 2. In response to the comment on Section 6.5 regarding "joint and several liability," in which Kavouss commented that "joint cannot be associated with several." "Joint and several liability" is a fundamental legal concept and well-understood term, at least under U.S. law. Here is a definition from the Cornell Legal Information Institute https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/joint_and_several_liability (one of many available on the web): COMMENTS Once again jointly and severally are incompatible. You refer to US Court are different at different cases and can change- Thus There no single agreed opinion ,decision or order of a court in this regard which could be applied to all cases.MOREOVER, IT DEPENDS WHICH COURT ( DISTRICT PREMIER INSTANCE, Appeal , or Federal ONES ) Select another term instead of " severally" I have had many other comments I spent three hours of omy time of unday I do expect that people do not insist on their wrong vision please kindly reconsider the matter and accept two of my recent alternative proposal plus my other proposal Regards Kavouss
