[Community-Discuss] Update on the complaint lodged against AFRINIC at the Competition Commission of Mauritius

[Noah]

And to add that, In fact AFRINIC is by extension a public institution by
means of the resource members who operate through the mandate of the public
across jurisdictions in which AFRINIC serves.

If an entity is going to complain anonymously that is their business but
this info ought to be public.
