  Dear colleagues,

  As you know AfriNIC had its second public policy meeting
  and Annual General Meeting last week in Maputo. The meeting
  has been a very successful one. While the full report is on
  the way, let me give you here the key outcomes.

  During the meeting AfriNIC has signed two important documents:

  One allowing AfriNIC to formally join the NRO as full member
  and the second one with the three former registries serving
  our region on the effective transfer of authority to AfriNIC.

  On the Afternoon of the first day, the community has elected
  AfriNIC region representatives to the NRO NC. Two have been

  elected:

  - Jean Robert Hountomey for three years term (04/2005-12/2008)
  - Sylvia Geha Kezengwa for two years term (04/2005-12/2007)

  According to the new NRO MoU, the third representative must be
  appointed by AfriNIC Board and Alan Barrett has been appointed
  for one year term (04/2005-12/2006)

  The next day has been mostly dedicated to the policies discussions
  and the AGM.

  The latest policies proposed on the policy-wg mailing list have
  been discussed among the participants. As stated in our PDP, the
  discussion must continue on line (to reach the 30 days). These
  policies will be discussed again during the next public policies
  meeting.

  During the AGM, three majors points were on the Agenda:

  1) Renewal of board seats 5 and 6:

  * Didier Kasole and Gaetan Bouraga have been elected respectively
      as Primary and alternate for Central Africa (seat 5)

  * Viv Padayatchy and Kenny Yiptong have been elected respectively
      as Primary and alternate for Indian Ocean Region (seat 6)

  2) 2006/2007 budget has been adopted

  3) A new fee schedule has been approved by members. Key changes
  in this new fee schedule are:

         a) Membership-only fee droped from 400 USD to 100 USD

         b) Increase for Medium, Large and Extra Large membership

             fee as follow:

             Medium becomes       6,500 USD
             Large becomes        13,000 USD
             Extra Large becomes  20,000 USD

  All the presentations will also be online soon.

  We would like to thank all of you who were there and hope to continue
  having  your feedback.

  Kind regards.
