Hi Mike Thank you for your reply and opinion on the matter.
I am personally offended by Owens choice of words against ICANN. The existence of an RIR is only possible through ICANN ICP-2 and for him to refer to ICANN as a puppet is offending. AFRINIC would not have existed without the ICANN structures.
