[Community-Discuss] [rpd] Lobbying Allegations against Wafa Dahmani

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Hi Wafa,

As I’ve expressed in many occasions, I’m all for freedom of speech. However, when you have a position elected by the community, you need to take care and avoid miss interpretations.

That’s means that in your messages you must clearly state “hat-off” and not remark your positions as ASO-AC, or whatever, just to make 10000% clear that it is your position.

Note that even this email from you (which according to what you said now, I understand it is personal) is signed as “Member AFRINIC Appeal Committee - Global IGF MAG member - ASO / AC excom member”.

Just for example, when IETF co-chairs state their opinion for any document (in the email list or in the meeting) they clearly say it is hat-off and is only their personal view. Same when sometimes, chairs of PDP state their position.

The question to be clarified anyway, is how you choose your email recipients. It is people that you personally know and have agree to receive your “campaign” emails, or you used emails from a list or database.

Regards,
Jordi

Hello All,

I can campaign for anyone and its perfectly normal and I was speaking in my personal behalf. 

I understand that my salutations can be confusing, but I sent this email in my personal capacity. 

Being a volunteer at ASO - AC does not strip me off my rights to my personal opinions nor does it mean I can not campaign for my preferred candidates.

In anycase, the ASO - AC has its own procedures and communication channels.
