Hi Toma:That is exactly what Hans have been trying to confuse the community about.NRO letter is asking the government taking over RIR in exchange for immunity for RIR leadership , not asking government being part of community, but essentially ignore all the other stake holders, have government taking oversight rule -and abandon the 30 years community self governance. I am all for government stay as part of the community in multi stake holder model.But this is not the problem, and not the discussion needed here.Lu HengChief Executive Officer LARUS LimitedEmail H.Lu@LARUS.net Office +852 2988 8918 Address A3, 11/F, TML Tower, Tsuen Wan, N.T, Hong Kong SARWebsite: LARUS.netThis email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
