Dear Chairperson,
Reference is made to the AGMM chaired by you on the 4 June 2021. I wish to put on record that at the AGMM we were not given a reasonable opportunity to discuss and comment on the management of AFRINIC and in particular to the following issues:- Question 1 AFRINIC claims that any change in the IP usage will require re-justifying the usage. Would it mean that, hypothetically, if I have a web customer on my server and they leave to be replaced with a VPN customer, will I need to seek AFRINIC’s approval first? Question 1 was not discussed or commented upon Question 2 The rest of the world enjoys a 30 USD/IP at a free open market. With AFRINIC having a transfer policy in place, will AFRINIC still demand any unused IP be returned to them for free? Question 2 was not discussed or commented upon Question 3 Out-of-region use was extensively discussed within the last decade, and it was a consensus that pre-soft landing space is allowed for out-of-region use. Yet, I heard that AFRINIC seems to be using bylaw 6.1 to manage other people’s resource usage. This is not part of AFRINIC policy and has, with good reason, never been approved by the community. Can AFRINIC clarify its understanding of out-of-region usage to the member base? Question 3 was not discussed or commented upon Question 4 Madhvi was in charge of the registration department when the IP heist happened – this, at the very least, shows her incompetence, so why is she getting promoted instead of rightfully dismissed? Question 4 was not discussed or commented upon Paul Wollner
