[afripv6-discuss] RE: FW: [ipv6-members] Fwd: Is the Transition to IPv6 a "Market Failure?"

[Latif LADID ("The New Internet based on IPv6")]

Dear Sami,

The current IP addressing allocation works very well and Africa is perfectly
run by Afrinic: www.afrinic.net  

One of the areas where you could really add great value is as you said
promote addition or integration of IPv6 (not migration)
in terms of capacity building, practical and hands-on workshops on the one
hand and thru adoption policies thru the Ministry of communications
and the regulators by making stakeholders embrace IPv6 thru procurement
enforcement and request of IPv6 service from the national telecom operators
and ISPs.

If the ITU could add some IPv6 experts from Africa who know the real field
issues, it would help to have a meaningful collaboration in this respect.

Please see attached email of the same discussion these days.

Let's make IPv6 a success in Africa and not a "political failure".

Cheers
Latif

Dear Latif

we as many participants in the 1st IPv6 group meeting wont to make some
modifications on the Internet addressing allocation and registration by
the participation of ITU and country administration on the processes not
only to regulate the sector, but also to motivate the migration toward
IPv6.


please refer to ITU group portal and the last meeting doc specially the
final report and the formation of the two groups to have an idea about
what we aim to do.


I couldn't find you email on the group mailing list, but any way we do
appreciate contribution from experts on the field.
