Why don't you simply call it "AfricaOneSpace Africa Strategy? I can see why you keep defending it now.<BR>> <BR>> I understand such is not even in the tradition of ICANN. If this is really an ICANN supported WG, how come the WG is formed only on one side of a constituency?. The mannerism of self-election and electing one's WG is
typical African and not an ICANN tradition. I see why now the final WG was not circulated at an earlier time before the announcement, giving an impression there was consensus. You guys are in hallucination. Good luck with your Africa strategy, just do not be surprised when another one pops out under a different constituency. After all there was no consensus on a one .africa either!<BR>> <BR>> --Lerato Ma<BR>> From: "<A href="mailto:otieno.barrack@gmail.com" ymailto="mailto:otieno.barrack@gmail.com">otieno.barrack@gmail.com</A>" <<A href="mailto:otieno.barrack@gmail.com" ymailto="mailto:otieno.barrack@gmail.com">otieno.barrack@gmail.com</A>><BR>> To: <A href="mailto:africann@afrinic.net" ymailto="mailto:africann@afrinic.net">africann@afrinic.net</A> <BR>> Sent: Saturday, September 8, 2012 11:49 PM<BR>> Subject: Re: [AfrICANN-discuss] A brief update on the ASWG<BR>> <BR>> I echo your sentiments Badru, let us all
