Hi All,

That was a very informative piece on Internet Governance that Walu ran in 
his Sunday column. This was the first time that I have seen the issue of IG 
covered anywhere in the African press. The issue will be with us for a long 
long time. Oversight (Forum) and core resources management (from 4 WGIG 
proposals to 10 at PrepCom III) will both most certainly not be resolved by 
or even through Tunis.

As for the root servers, I have been having a nagging question for our 
friend Michuki: is there a particular reason to have 2 root server mirrors 
sitting in the same room (in your message of 17th September you indicated 
that the I-Server mirror is imminent) when these servers contain the same 
data?? I have always imagined - maybe wrongly - that one reason for having 
multiple servers is to better manage risk and geographic dispersion helps 
in that regard.

Kind Regards
Waudo Siganga
