    <p>Dear Jordi.</p>
    <p>I am a man of reason. But, I don't appreciate being cajoled. I
      agree that we could have, from onset agree that we are selecting
      new co-chairs to start on a clean slate. I disagree with the
      statement that they are completing a tenure and in the same vein
      mutating to start a new tenure.</p>
    <p>If you will recall, for emphasis sake, I suggested that what we
      are doing should be on a clean slate, however it was ignored.
      Surprisingly, it was suddenly introduced after the selections was
      done. <b>That is my grouse</b>.</p>
    <p>My suggestion is that the Board and AfriNIC Secretariat should
      re-frame their affirmation and summaries to capture that the PWDG
      had selected two co-chairs on a consensus to start new tenure.
      This is on the condition that the records shows that this was what
      actually transpired.</p>
    <p>Adding to the learning: We must be consistent and implicit always
      with our intentions and goals.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Simply</p>
