important events. We probably need to go back to the core reason Afrinic
was created. let me recount our Vision and Mission:-

Dear Andrew,

of months, in such that, with all respect due to you, I wanted to tell you
to stop paying your $50k annual fee, and go rent your resources to another

this list could already see it – as
Yip – I said it – and I stand by everything I said in there.

Members,
The organization has a board that did it fiduciary duty and approved a
budget that was set aside for various activities for the financial year

since this is part of his responsibility.
Now, If the CEO received an
New Role?
I was audit-co chair for a long time No longer on the board – but I still
