What is wrong with sharing a link of interest or a link that a member consider relevant to him/herself. Freedom of expression is always promoted in this community as long as it does not go out of line. Members of this community including the AFRINIC organization itself always share updates and links; never have it been considered an act of being a “Sockpuppet”. Lets stop throwing words around in this community mailing list and create unwanted confusion.

The past updates have been shared by AFRINIC itself or a community member that wanted to transmit the information and hardly anyone considered that a « sockpuppet » act. Only the two parties involved in the litigation are informed of the case’s latest development and it’s always appreciated when one of them releases a statement to update us about it.
