Owen,

If memory servers, not so long ago, a group that vehemently opposed the
"abuse contacts" proposal, failed to work out a consensual proposal on
"review of resource usage" and is now opposing the "AS0  ROA"  by AfriNIC
on unallocated/unassigned space, will have to do more than just "good faith
effort" to convince this working group and the world on his seriousness
about his stewardship responsibility on number resources.

This is especially true given the continued negative press towards
AfriNIC’s disregard of her stewardship.

Are we refusing to see and confront the facts ? We seem to have a big
elephant in the room....
