1- The points are not listed by preference or priority.
2- Bigger players from other regions have more impact on IANA pool exhaustion
which will affect our region.
So what to do to get our operators and users to avoid the surprise which
may be the non availability of ressources in AfriNIC pool when IANA's pool
will be exhausted.
hope this helps,
