have you looked at, for instance, the so-called proposal for
signing the root zone at that url?  it says

    An Interim Scheme for Signing the Public DNS Root, Johan Ihren,
    Autonomica

    Synopsis

    This is a proposal for transitioning from an unsigned DNS root
    to a signed root where the data will be signed by DNSSEC
    signatures.

    The underlying reason for signing the root is to be able to
    provide a more secure DNS hierarchy, where it is possible to
    distinguish false answers from correct answers. For the special
    case of the DNS root zone, an interim scheme is proposed. This
    scheme is mostly aimed at securing the root zone itself for
    technical and operational reasons, and to give operational
    experience of DNSSEC.

that's the whole thing.  it has zero technical content.  and, in
fact, johan's proposal is being discussed in the ietf and some good
folk feel it has some way to go before it is ready to be discussed
in the dns and security communities, let alone be cast as policy in
a meeting of ip address management folk from isps in asia or
anywhere else.

and then we get to the 'proposal' for the doc review and policy
process.  all it says is

    Doc Review and Policy Processes Anne Lord, Gerard Ross, APNIC
    Secretariat

    Synopsis

    This proposal is split into two parts. One part proposes
    modifications to the existing Document Review Policy to align
    it more closely to the processes and outcomes of consensus
    decisions that emerge from the APNIC Open Policy Meeting.

    The existing Policy making processes have been evolving for
    some time to become more structured and organised.

    This agenda item is a review of those processes to see if they
    meet the needs of the Internet community in the Asia Pacific.

do you really think this is a proposal?  and what do you intend to
do in taipei based on this 'proposal'?

oh, it does have a link to the existing process of which i presume
all this is an example.  QED.
