Hello Noah<br>
<br>
Did you just use the list not just to thanks the community (which is <br>
fine) but also to make campaign to a NRO candidate ?<br>
<br>
This is really concerning behavior and usage of this email list. What if <br>
other people start to make campaign for the other 2 candidates start to <br>
divert the list propose ?<br>
There is a proper place to manifest support to candidates which is on <br>
AfriNic NRO-NC comments page.<br>
<br>
I want to ask Co-Chairs attention to this episode which cannot be <br>
encouraged.<br>
<br>
Fernando<br>

You are right Fernando,<br>
<br>
Although one might argue that there is no current law or policy in AfriNIC<br>
that prevents campaigning openly for a candidate, but doing it in such a<br>
manner and on the various rpd and community discuss platforms is for me<br>
ethically and morally not correct.<br>
<br>
People might have their own opinions regarding who they want to vote but<br>
this influences for example newcomers to the scene. The candidates cv<br>
should speak for themselves and their presentations should speak for<br>
themselves.<br>
<br>
Please I do not support this.<br>
<br>
