[AfrICANN-discuss] Help with .africa history

[Dr Yassin Mshana]

It seems to be very quiet on this question...... can I make some noise
please?

I just want to say, "Fair Competition is what matters" - No to politics as
much as I like and respect the political dimension but not in ICANN
processes. It was decided that Politics and ICANN process should not share
the same room - it would not work properly - this was especially when some
ccTLDs weer having a rough time with authorities back home.

Some countries decided to have ICT Policies and Strategies approved by
their Parliaments - it was not easy to inform about the Public Good part of
the policies but Hey! there was again there....

That is how to work with Political Organs and Sovereign Bodies.... not
through this endless discussion which emanated from a straight forward
question from our Journalist who wished to write a 'Story'

In that case, better to postpone the 'Story' and write about about 'How
African Behaved on <.africa> gTLD application' Rebecca - you have a story
to write about - I think - because the focus is lost or the request was
provocative to get the truth of who we are! We are like hunters..?

Enough for noise from me for me for now

Kind regards

Yassin
