It would be ideal if a discussion could start here and reach people with
decision-making mandates. At the moment, I do not see anything within
AFRINIC that could take things beyond the mailing list, except the will
of people.
Once in a while I attend events where there are
discussions about topics which may be of interest
to Resource Members or the community. The last
event was about cybersecurity. There was a
question from a representative of the World Bank
about Information Technology governance in
companies. From what I recall, I gave a short
response. A well-established company would
assess the risks of connectivity issues if it
relies on Internet-related services for its day-to-day operations.
In general, "Internet shutdowns" are about social
network shutdowns. That could fit under the
topic of digital rights [1]. In my opinion,
digital rights are not directly related to what
Afrinic Ltd does. I did not understand the
following: "take things beyond the mailing
list". Is it about Afrinic Ltd talking with
government agencies about, for example, digital rights?
