<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I tend to agree with DG on this one. That said, I would be surprised if the report finally conclude that there was an unauthorised access to the archive (i.e it was hacked) as that would contradict the preliminary report given by the CEO at the AGMM which implied that access the archive was enabled to subscribed users and frontend subscriptions was possible.</p>
<p dir="ltr">If the update given by the CEO was the case then one won't categorise access to the archive by anyone (including non-nomcom members) as unauthorised. Having said that, we are left with the intent of copying the archive; if I were to think about the possible extreme intent, I guess it would be to discredit the work of nomcom to the extent that it would have stalled the election process during the AGMM. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Since the elections went well, one can then assume that reading through the archive did not draw any water as such there was no call for violation of process from the floor which is to the credit of nomcom.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I think it's lessons learnt on both sides and we can move on.</p>

Hi<br>
<br>
<br>
I believe sander's action is legitimate and seeing nothing wrong with it(could be better though, it is better he inform all board member at same time but not his personal friend), as Alan as already clearly stated in the Afrinic meeting that no charge will be pressed against anyone in this case, I think this case is over.<br>
<br>
<br>
And I as community member appreciate sender identify a flow in the mailing list and helped us fixed it.<br>
<br>

<br>
This is incorrect: the information was listed as *a public mailing list* on <a href="http://lists.afrinic.net" target="_blank">lists.afrinic.net</a> . Multiple people have confirmed this, including independent community members, afrinic staff and the afrinic CEO.<br>
<br>

<br>
I am not. I am a member of the RIPE community and I am a working group chair in that community. I am not employed by RIPE NCC.<br>
<br>
> Makes me wonder what their take is on your actions especially the fact that they probably funded your trip<br>
<br>
They didn't. I paid for the trip myself. To be perfectly clear: RIPE NCC did not pay *anything* for this trip. They weren't even aware I was attended until they met me at the meeting venue.<br>
<br>
I have no idea what your intentions are by stating this false information, but please stop doing so.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
Sander Steffann<br>
