time on discussing and we are moving forward to be able to act and it was
an african decision last ICANN meeting.
We welcome his input to the strategy.

> Hello Pierre,
> Thank you for this communication and Minute of The Meeting. Much
appreciated.
> I am pleased to see that members of GAC from Africa were present
(I recognize one).
> The issue is that, although the actions taken was right, why not
circulate the Minutes widely since this <africann at afrinic.net> includes a
large proportion of Africans? I have not heard a complaint that this list
excluded anyone so far....
> All in all, Why wasn't this sideline at ICANN-44 activity not
communicated widely - before, during and after the event? It is history
now...
> My suggestion is to engage a Reverse Gear to this whole thing and let the
CEO of ICANN know we are doing so. No harm doing that since a round of
consultations need to take place - for inclusive purposes. In that case,
ICANN-Toronto will not be the opportune time and place to deal with this.
If ICANN has budgeted for this activity - not bad eh? They can hold fire
until another ICANN meeting. That is a lesson we have learned - or is there
a rush for this which would mislead ICANN and everybody concerned?
> I am sorry to have to suggest a STOP to this for the moment -  since it
is better to get things in a right from the beginning.
> I have taken the liberty to copy this to Steve Crocker for his attention
please - since he ought to know about the suggestion.
> Kind regards

to a Committee of 7 taking into account representatives from the remaining
3 regions.
