It also implies that those positions are relevant to the content of the 
message. I would be very surprised if some if those organisations mentioned 
agree with being drawn into an African election process. I'll be asking the 
RIPE delegates to the NRO AC about their involvement in this.

Indeed. This is a strong indication of a conflict of interest, while the 
actions of an independent foundation are not.

Oh but it does. You are communicating using an official company template. If 
you are not speaking as an official representative you cannot use that template 
or you have to be very explicit that you are speaking only for yourself. 
Otherwise your message WILL be seen as a statement from an employee.

Cheers,
Sander
