I will not support that only one person from the “representative team” to do the speaking. Technical, legal and financials are three distinct subjects and I do not find it exaggerated if an organisation would like to have a three-member representative to speak on these subjects individually during the AGMM.

Yes, indeed. I agree with you. The online restriction should have been communicated to members much in advance. Those who oppose the restriction would get ample time to discuss with AFRINIC or seek appropriate advice.
