[discuss] rootservers

Mon Feb 24 13:05:12 UTC 2014

Hello Elisabeth,

Looking at my country NG(and Africa as a whole) with an eye on the number
in US. I wonder whether to be jealous or concerned, i think the later is
more like it.
It is my hope that the recent ICANN Africa strategy and its implementation
will boost representation from Africa.

On a lighter note, isn't this obvious proof that more effort and attention
needs to be focused on Africa (developing nation)  ;)

Cheers!
