<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">Dear All-</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">I would like to make few
points for the record:<br>
</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">1 - I believe this letter that is circulating has been addressed by DCA to AU
immediately after DCA has received it and copied to the relevant authorities.
Additionally our response to AU is communicated publicly on DCA website. <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.dotconnectafrica.org/"><span style="color: blue;">www.dotconnectafrica.org</span></a>. DCA is not obliged to post all
internal communications on our site that which we manage with our various
endorsers, as this is work in progress.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; color: black;">2- To response to earlier
comment by Dr Yassin, on the AUC Deputy, there seems to be a great confusion
with our Continental organization on how .africa should be handled. Just to
give benefit of doubt and not speak on behalf - a Deputy who may have been told
on how the process should be.<br>
<br>
3- The decision still remains in ICANN's hand and not African Union. AUC or AU <span style=""> </span>is not going to bypass international rules to
be the arbitrator for the process. ICANN has published this process in the
guidebook, which apply across the world. We cannot expect special treatment for
Africa and DCA as a major player in this application process, will insist to
stick to the rules.<br>
<br>
4- DCA is in continuous communication with the African Union and positively engaged
with the Chairman’s office, where DCA relieved its endorsement to provide clarity to this confusion; unfortunately
DCA has also been busy on the ground delivering, since AU even during a recent
meeting has assured us that none of the letters they have issued should stop us
from continuing our work (meeting minutes can be provided). </span></p>
<div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">5-The posting by DCA for the ICANN Board seat 15 was done at the appropriate forum, which is the currently ongoing, so everyone has a right to air their opinion on that forum. DCA did not circulate the posting inappropriately, unlike those who have taken the privilege of circulating unauthenticated letters that has not even been addressed to them.<br><br>I think respect starts with using appropriate channel of communication and doing the right thing.<br><br>Thank you for listening,<br>Lerato<br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">From:</span></b> Baudouin SCHOMBE <b.schombe@gmail.com><br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">To:</span></b> africann@afrinic.net<br><b><span style="font-weight: bold;">Cc:</span></b>

Fellow Africans and friends of 360 degrees Development,<div><br></div><div>Is this kind of stuff going on supposed to do good to the image of Africa? I ma afraid to say openly say NO!</div><div><br></div><div>Does it mean that an opinion is the fact? NO - unless based on justifiable observation (IMHO)</div>
<div><br></div><div>What is DCA? It is a Business which is aiming to promote the Internet-based business while making the presence of Africa and its potential to fairly compete in the Internet-based economy (which interprets as one of the pillars of ICANN)</div>
<div><br></div><div>I do not think that this kind of communication is doing Africa any good.....if an objection has been made (which is everybody's right to do so) there should be no need to share the concerns in the open media like this...it just adds petrol on fire! everybody will start shouting-out-aloud! In that case it will tarnish the image and professionally put us on question...</div>
<div><br></div><div>What is troubling me (as an African) is that, we believe that there is no smoke without fire - can the accusations made be responded to in a professional manner please? Everybody has the right to an opinion.... </div>
<div><br></div><div>I have never seen this kind of warring before. The only time I remember such thing happening was when I was nominated to represent Africa at the ccNSO Council - a colleague sent me an article from an African Newspaper claiming that I was based in a small country and no one knew me - how could I take such a responsibility..? You know what? I did not bother about that - it was negatively wrong for the Editor to let such an article go public - I ignored all that because Africans have sent me to ICANN....</div>
<div><br></div><div>Lastly.......it is not wise to fight Opinions and I find it uncomfortable to read this email from a colleague (Nii) and not the African candidate himself - my brother (Pierre) and the email is on public domain ..?</div>
<div><br></div><div>My prayer is that we redress and do the right thing - Amen! </div><div><br></div><div>Sincerely and for love of our Mother Africa,</div><div><br></div><div>Yassin Mshana </div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div><div></div><div>
<div><div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Hi All,</span></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I have come across this smear campaign against a nominee for an ICANN Director which I must share. I am speechless as never in the life of ICANN have we seen this kind of manipulation. This is unprecedented and I dissociate myself from this kind of practice at ICANN and I call on all who find this offensive to say so openly on this list and to ICANN. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I like to apologize to Pierre Dandjinou as he does not deserve this. Pierre would be a very good ICANN director, a person who has been through all the phases of ICANN development from INETs, ANSs, DCNS, IAHC, DNSO ...., ICANN then AfNOG, AfriNIC, AfTLD, AfRALO,.., AfREN and current coordinator of AfCERT. He has shown commitment and continuing to take on newer responsibilities in the African technical community, well respected in diplomatic circles having worked with UN system and deserves better. Pierre may have skills that ICANN likely needs at this time</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This is very bad as it makes ICANN look manipulated, tolerating arm twisting and makes Africa look bad in doing so. Admittedly the same DCA prevented the Africa numbers registry from teaching Ethiopians because of one person's .africa interest in a string that is community owned. This also shows severe weakness in African governments whose officers got easily manipulated and thus denied themselves technical education which DCA cannot provide, deepening the divide on the continent.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This may be a warning to the ICANN and AfrICANN community in that this was also the same person who mounted an earlier smear campaign against an ICANN officer on guess what, same .africa and to Ombudsman. This shows a pattern of setting up ICANN for disrepute. In this particular case it is also setting ICANN in a collision course with the 53 member Union AUC. Remember 3 strikes and you are out. It is two strikes now</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">These things happening around current higthened global Internet governance discussions poisons the atmosphere for ICANN in some ways</span></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">It is my hope that if any of the claims are found false remedy would be sought</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76); min-height: 14px;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">All this wahala is about a string .africa that some think can be their private property. I think its more responsible for the regional organization (AUC) to hold the string in public trust and have policy oversight, especially so with these likes of practices of DCA. This has been what the Africann community has helped to achieve.</span></div>

</div><div style="margin: 0px; color: rgb(0, 54, 76);"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">There have been no proposals to ICANN on .africa since 2002 hence there are no official proposals on .africa. The domain <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://dotafrica.org/"><span style="text-decoration: underline; letter-spacing: 0px;">dotafrica.org</span></a> was registered in 2004 as a community response to the 2002 proposal for .africa and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://connectdotafrica.org/"><span style="text-decoration: underline; letter-spacing: 0px;">connectdotafrica.org</span></a> was registered in 2007.

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">2007 Lisbon - DCA first heard of .africa at this meeting and could not be making a presentation. DCA copied the material from <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.dotafrica.org/"><span style="text-decoration: underline; letter-spacing: 0px;">www.dotafrica.org</span></a> and received source material from one of the contributors. This is a lie. I was the scribe and know the documents were plagiarized by DCA which is an offense. Note point above</span></div>

This is another lie exposing her since she likes to block or manipulate. The truest example is mixing Afrinic training workshop with DCA as an Ethiopian business that is being prevented by AfriNIC from having .africa. Whew;-[</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">DCA was rather rejected by the community which rejected her aggression at a respected local participant.

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Yes, members of several African Internet related organizations did contribute to the document. I had input from folks who are from ccTLDs, AfTLD, AfNOG, AfriNIC, AfREN and others. Therefore this is a true statement</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The strings .africa, .afrique and .afrika are of interest to all Africans and therefore necessary to have a unified proposal to be legitimate. In any case the AUC says they are interested and every serious networker ought to respond to help the AUC if they are committed to Africa</span></div>

Is the BCEC supposed to reply to this?<br>
<br>It seems like this should go to the Abst List or At-Large Advisory Committee for consideration ? <br><br>Wondering how this may affect the Board Candidate Selection process and the slate now?<br><br>Best to all,<br>Annalisa<br>
