I would tend to think that these two proposals are mutually
incompatible. If we are to proceed with the phaseout plan with the
proposed dates (and they appear to be what could reach consensus), what
is the point of making the move towards the RIRs? I would take the most
part of the remaining time between now and July 2004 to get all the
paperwork pushed, and one might think that it is not worth the effort
for just a few months of operations.

I have supported the transfer to the RIRs and I still support it, but it
would require a considerable extension of the phaseout dates, which I
also proposed earlier (some recent postings seem to indicate that I am
not the only one leaning in this direction).

I have great confidence that Jordi has what it takes to run this.
