I thought that you were asking the question to the mailing list.  I 
don't think that it is naive to ask questions.  I also ask questions 
( https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2016/005565.html ).

Sorry about that.  I did not know that you are representing Neo TMT 
as a resource member.  Mr Aina asked me to stop discussing ( 
https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2016/005783.html ).  I am 
replying to you as I do not wish to violate the code of conduct by 
not replying to a question from a resource member which was addressed 
to me.  I agree that you have all the rights as you are a resource member.

Thank you for explaining that as it helped me to understand what you 
were trying to point out.

The above question seems to be addressed to me.  I could only follow 
the last meeting remotely.  There was some technical issues ( 
https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2016/005556.html ) and it was 
difficult for me to understand what was being discussed at that 
meeting.  As I was unable to follow the financial discussions (fees, 
etc.) it is not possible for me to answer your question.
