<p class=MsoNormal>I would like to ask that we close this thread. The main
objective of the AIS17 event was that we had a successful workshop week. We
also had an engaging meeting week. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div id=AppleMailSignature>
<p class=MsoNormal>The organisation had challenges but besides all challenges
the community came together discussed, and ended the meeting at a positive
note. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div id=AppleMailSignature>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div id=AppleMailSignature>
<p class=MsoNormal>We are all continuously learning to make sure that the next
event is better. Sometimes we will get it wrong, a reminder that we are
human. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Tolerance of our diversity and trust for each other is what
has built this strong community. At times we will strain this equilibrium but
ultimately we all have the best intentions. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div id=AppleMailSignature>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div id=AppleMailSignature>
<p class=MsoNormal>I ask that we look at all the good and positive outcomes,
and learn from where we collectively failed as we look forward to
meet as a unified community in both Nigeria and Senegal. <o:p></o:p></p>

I disagree.<br>
<br>
I recall a RIPE meeting where the v4 connectivity was shut off to<br>
demonstrate what<br>
that was like, and no one batted an eye.<br>
<br>
I thank Liquid for their support and applaud them for their political courage.<br>
<br>
The point was to show us that it is no fun having your Internet cut<br>
off, they made that point quite well I think.<br>
