<p class="MsoNormal">I am not a magician to know whether or not the Board has sought external legal advice. I was just concerned by the time set by the board for the legal advice, knowing that good board governance and senior legal adviser like the one employed
by AFRINIC for more than a decade should have answered this question of breach or not of NDA.<o:p></o:p></p>

Dear Marcus,<br>
<br>
Please do not assume things that have not been stated. You don’t know whether or not the Board has sought external legal advice, you don’t know how long they have waited for advice.<br>
