[Community-Discuss] Legacy Resource Holders WHOIS... fees remits.

[Lydea Akiriza]

Dear AFRINIC,
I have an earnest desire to learn more about Internet in Africa, for that,I
am grateful for this platform.
Today I was looking through the AFRINIC website and I came across the
Legacy Resources Holders link
http://www.afrinic.net/en/services/rs/legacy-resources-holders and
something stood out for me...

"Although there is no contractual relationship and obligation between
legacy resources holders and AFRINIC, legacy resources holders still
benefit from AFRINIC registry service support such as WHOIS, reverse DNS
and the Internet Routing Registry....There are currently around 350 legacy
resources holders registered in the AFRINIC WHOIS database...AFRINIC
encourages legacy resource holders to become AFRINIC members...."

So my question is, does this mean Legacy Resource Holders despite using
AFRINIC Registry services (like WHOIS, Reverse DNS e'tal) don't remit fees
to AFRINIC?

Thanks!
