This Board member has a legal obligation towards 
Afrinic Ltd.  I noticed some comments about the 
legal aspects in the staff assessment report for 
AFPUB-2016-GEN-001-DRAFT-04.  I cannot overlook 
that even though the proposal attained consensus 
at the last public policy meeting.

There was a resolution in November 2016 about a 
requirement to disclose conflict of 
interest.  I'll look into the question which you asked about "Policy".

It may be easier if the authors ask the Working 
Group Chairs to request a legal analysis.    The 
alternatives are complicated.

I read the messages about that.
