>>Dear all,
>> 
>>I join you in congratulating Pierre on his receipt of this prestigious award!  This is a great achievement for him, and testimony to the superb work he's been doing all these years with and for the community. By the way, I also saw him on TV a month or two ago (on France 24 I think) in a program about the late Thomas Sankara.  I never knew he on the frontline with Sankara!  Again, Pierre, congratulations, and best wishes!

>>
>>[Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 01 August 2012] -- The Internet
>>Society today
 announced that its prestigious Jonathan B. Postel
>>Service Award was presented to Pierre Ouedraogo for his exceptional
>>contributions to the growth and vitality of the Internet in Africa.
>>The international award committee, comprised of former Jonathan B.
>>Postel award winners, noted that Mr. Ouedraogo played a significant
>>role in the growth of the Internet in Africa and demonstrated an
>>extraordinary commitment to training young engineers and participating
>>in regional Internet organizations.
>>
>>Mr. Ouedraogo is the Director of Digital Francophonie at Organisation
>>Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF) based in Paris, France. Over
>>the years, he has established networks of IT experts to coordinate
>>African efforts to develop IT and use it as a tool for development.
>>Mr. Ouedraogo initiated many IT technical workshops in Africa and is a
>>founding member of numerous African regional organizations, including
>>AfriNIC (the
 African Internet Registry for IP addresses); AfTLD
>>(African Internet Top Level Domain Names Association); AFNOG (African
>>network operators group); AfCERT (African CERT network), and AfrICANN
>>(African network of participants to the ICANN process).
>>
>>“Pierre Ouedraogo is a highly-regarded technical leader in Africa, and
>>he has been instrumental in bringing the Internet to Burkina Faso as
>>well as other French-speaking African countries,” said Lynn St. Amour,
>>President and Chief Executive Officer of the Internet Society.  “His
>>commitment to the expansion of the Internet and encouragement of young
>>engineers to help them build their skills through training workshops
>>has had a profound impact on the growth of the Internet across
>>Africa.”
>>
>>The Postel Award was established by the Internet Society to honour
>>individuals or organisations that, like Jon Postel, have made
>>outstanding contributions in service
 to the data communications
>>community. The committee places particular emphasis on candidates who
>>have supported and enabled others in addition to their own specific
>>actions. The award is focused on sustained and substantial technical
>>contributions, service to the community, and leadership.
>>
>>The Internet Society presented the award, including a US$20,000
>>honorarium and a crystal engraved globe, during the 84th meeting of
>>the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) held in Vancouver, British
>>Columbia, Canada, July 29 - August 3, 2012.
