[AfrICANN-discuss] Cancellation of the Meeting AFRALO/AfrICANN of Toronto

[Seun Ojedeji]

How does my message imply meeting to discuss a resolution...all i am saying
is since the first proposal "The creation of an ICANN fund for the
developing countries" has been handled by ASWG which makes it a done
deal...why not then pick another pressing topic for discussion at the AFRALO
AfrICANN meeting planned for Wednesday 17 October. As from my understanding
of the mail, it looks like the meeting is just a session that AFRALO-AfrICANN
joint meeting in Toronto, so basically the event will still hold(pls
correct me if my interpretation is wrong).
So the point i was making is put a few more sticks in the fire! Unless
ofcourse the sole reason for the Toronto meeting was to discuss the earlier
proposal which is now covered by ASWG.
