[AFRINIC-rpd] Commencement of the last call

[Andrew Alston]

Sorry Badru, but your comment below is actually incorrect.

> if i wanted to take resources off the continent all i need to do now is to
invest in a poor african HEI get the resources and then use them in my business
abroad.  The policy opens the door we are claiming to close.

The policy is pretty clear on this:

HEIs will be classified as End Users under this policy, on provision of a
duly authorized letter from the institution management stating that address
space allocated will not be used outside of the campus/academic environment.

End users do not have this option, the only time this would be the case is
if the Universities were classified as LIR's and that is something we have
been at pains to make sure is not the default case under this policy
