[NCUC-DISCUSS] 答复: NomCom public meeting, Wednesday

Wed Mar 9 22:11:17 CET 2016

And I am proposing that since ICCANN is going to launch a communication for
Africa in Nairobi next month can NCUC/ NCSG do the same? I will provide a
little office and a computer for free at our Community Resource Centre if
this agreed upon by the Council.
