It is an open forum to discuss issues related to internet number
resource management within the AfriNIC service region.

This meeting will also host a regional IPv6 conference where network
operators will share their experiences on IPv6 deployment.

last between 10 and 30 minutes.

pass through the appropriate phases of the Policy Development Process
