[AfriNIC-rpd] IPv4 trading needs global policy, says Mueller - issue for AfriNIC PDP ??

[Adiel Akplogan]

Hello Sunday, Walu,

Yes the list has existed in the past but few years ago it has been 
converted/renamed to announce at afrinic.net. An announcement was sent 
then to notify the community of the change (see e-mail sent on 
January 12, 2007 17:25:46 PM GMT+04:00 by Ernest in the archives of 
this mailing list). 

If there is a need for a general discussion list within AfriNIC 
community we could of course setup another mailing list specifically 
for that. Something like afrinic-talk@ or similar.

Thanks.

- a.

>> Paulos, Whereas I do agree with you, Nii also has a point.  This list is for discussing *formally* submitted policy.  And as long as none is availed, we find ourselves technically restricted in as far as discussing the issue outside a formal policy is concerned.

Perhaps as a prelude to submitting a position/policy proposal. I moderate some online and informal "brainstorming" forum that has subsequently informed/inspired numerous and previously hidden policy opportunities...and so I think this would be good to have.
