Questions to the Board in ICANN60

Tue Oct 3 10:32:38 EEST 2017

Actually Arsene they have started sending Board members to RIR meetings and in some cases whole ICANN board towards RIRs. Afrinic had a board member visit to this years AGM of afrinic and the whole board of afrinic and ICANN board also met. I know the same is also true for APNIC and RIPE. I met steve and some others at RIPE meeting this year in fact present in the PDP even. I know the ex Chairman of APNIC now a member of ICANN board has been to varied meetings as well. From what i gathered ICANN board were sending at least One board member not of the same region to the RIRs.

So i may want to weigh this question very wisely.
