Until now, we have not seen the supposed "minutes" of the meeting of how the decision came to be. Are they hiding something? Clearly, there is a grave abuse of discretion in this matter. As a democracy, we are entitled to the freedom of information that comes with this. As a community, we must see to it that we are fostering an environment of integrity and transparency.

Not only this, but as seen from other posts and threads, many questions are left unanswered. Whether it is done intentionally or not, it is not setting the best image for Afrinic's management...
