> Dear colleagues,
>
> As announced a few days ago, with effect from February 22nd,
> AfriNIC is moving a step ahead in its transition process.
> We have effectively started PHASE II of the transition -
> operating as a full RIR with a second opinion from other
> RIRs -
>
> Consequently, our whois server is online and all resource
> requests must be sent directly to hostmaster at afrinic.net.
> You must use the various templates available at:
>
> http://www.afrinic.net/documentation.htm#templates
>
> At this point, we do not have something similar to the
> 'LIR portal' (RIPE NCC) or 'MyAPNIC' (APNIC). All updates
> must be done through our e-mail interface. Please find the
> necessary information under the Database and Registration
> Services section of our web site (www.afrinic.net).
>
> Further more, public information about registration in
> the AfriNIC service region is now provided by whois.afrinic.net
> (port 43). You can query the server using any regular whois client.
> To have access to some advanced features, you may need to use the
> RIPE NCC whois client which can be found at:
>
> http://sourceforge.net/projects/whois/.
>
> A web interface for whois queries will be online soon.
>
> We will be happy to answer any questions from you regarding this
> process. Please send your questions to transition at afrinic.net.
>
> Kind regards.
