[Community-Discuss] [Board-Discuss] AFRINIC Board Community Engagement

[Adewole Ajao]

Thank you very much for the details, Chair.

I look forward to the engagement and to seeing a very prompt summary of
discussions sent to the lists afterwards. With that, those not physically
present can quickly add their thoughts if any.

All the best!

Regards,
Dewole.
