[AfrICANN-discuss] AfriDNS - Internet governance at the local level

[Mark Elkins]

Perhaps there should be a rule that states only African ccTLD and gTLD's
managed by African based Registries (i.e. Durban, Joburg, Capetown and
Africa) can be used here - i.e. - no more GMAIL or Yahoo (etc) type
addresses...

I'm quite serious - we should be promoting African e-mail providers
using African Domains, put our money where our mouth is...
