[Community-Discuss] Controversial anti-shutdown policy discussed at RIPE

[Noah]

Those past midnight discussions dont change the facts. We shalll have more

But fact remains that, AFRINIC's core missions is to promote internet
development by allocating  number resources and maintaining the database.
