[governance] Interesting story of the never ending ICANN Conflict of Interest. This time on .africa?

[karim.attoumanimohamed at ties.itu.int]

Colleagues,

I mean there are many cases that can be used to illustrate the  
conflict of interest within ICANN and not the .Africa (to  
differentiate from .DotAfrica)

If we refer to strings submited to this first round, we can note a  
demand for the string africa (applicant id 1-1243-89583) and another  
one dotafrica (1-1165-42560). I wonder why write these kinds of  
articles would hear in a conflict between two entities for africa  
string that does not exist. I agree that we must avoid conflicts of  
interest, but for the .Africa, this conflict should not exist.

I’m sure people who have applied for the DotAfrica (as string) knew  
they had lost in advance the africa!
