Je ne suis pas tout à fait d'accord avec toi Jaco, les règles fontenusles
dans le CPM complètent celles du Bylaw et du RSA dans leur spécificité
opérationnelle
Mais le principe de base contenu dans le RSA est claire les ressources sont
et doivent être destinés aux services dans la région Afrique, sauf
exception accordé par Afrinic, nous avons tous lus et signé ça en tant que
membres-ressource toute autre interprétation est tendancieuse et orientée
vers un intérêt autre que de servir l'Afrique.

Kind Regards,
