AFRINIC region too did not discuss having NRO as an operator but was
satisfied with the work of ICANN. The challenge of having NRO as an
operator and giving the IANA duties to one of the 5 RIRs will bring
disputes in our respective regions on which region is appropriate for this
task. This would be a very hard decision to reach consensus. It would also
raise major accountability issues. We should also tell him the work of
CRISP is compile community feedback that has reached consensus from the 5
RIRs.
