Communiqué from the Board of Afrinic
====================================

1. The board has taken note of the ongoing discussion on the RPD mailing
list related to the implementation of AFPUB-2010-GEN-005. The Board would
like to clarify that there is no reason at this point not to start
implementing the policy. 

2. However, the board understands that there is not enough time to organize
a fair election process at this meeting (afrinic 13). Therefore the Board
hereby suggests that the current PDP-MG be wound-up at the beginning of the
Afrinic-13 Policy Discussion and appoint an Interim Co-chairs for a period
of 6 months or until Afrinic-14, whichever is earlier, in order to allow
proper election to take place. 

3. The board is also proposing that two members of the current PDP-MG,
Subramania Moonesamy and Dr. Paulos Nyirenda be co-opted in view of their
current experience in order to allow a smooth transition and Policy
Development Process.
