[AfrICANN-discuss] Some inspirational reading on IG issues

[Mawaki Chango]

Hi McTim,

Then there are still a whole host of policy questions that are of global
scope (unlike the RIRs) and not necessarily focusing on technical standards
and protocol specs (like IETF). I guess it comes as no surprise to anyone
that those issues are precisely the most contentious.

Rgds,

mC
