Dear Eddy Thank you for this feedback update, unfortunately there is no policy to govern a free and fair online election at this time. I do recall a few proposals on that being discussed in this community a few months ago. However, none was brougth forward and none was adopted. To maintain transparency and fairness i will suggest that the community extends the tenure of those in office until the next opportunity for a face-to-face community session. I think this is necessary until a credible policy is adopted for such scenarios. This is crucial to maintain stability within the AFRINIC community.
