In a prior message, I quoted section 6.1 of the AFRINIC Bylaws, which I am now obliged to quote yet again:
6.1 Membership shall be open to: (i) any Person who is geographically based within, and providing services in the African region, and who is engaged in the use of, or business of providing, open system protocol network services; or (ii) any other Person who is approved by the Board or the members. The handle ORG-INL3-AFRINIC represents an alleged Seychelles corporate entity, "Inspiring Networks LTD", which appears to be owned and/or controlled by Mr. Maikel Uerlings. The set of AFRINIC-assigned IPv4 address blocks currently associated with ORG-INL3-AFRINIC is as follows: 45.220.64.0/18 196.61.192.0/20 197.231.208.0/22 Analysis of the routes that are currently publicly announced to the global Internet for each of the constituent /24 "C" blocks that compose the above IPv4 blocks provides the following results: Cblocks ASN CC Organization ------------------------------------------- 64 0 ?? UNROUTED IP SPACE 16 24567 AU QT Inc. 4 22769 US Ddosing Network Two things are apparent from these reults: 1) Just as in the case of Mr. Abizeid's and Mr. Mehta's corporate entities, it appears that Mr. Uerlings' Seychelles corporate entity, Inspiring Networks Ltd., also does not, at present, qualify, under the AFRINIC Bylaws to be a member of AFRINIC, as exactly -zero- of the company's AFRINIC-assigned IP address space is providing any service whatsoever to any point within the AFRINIC service region. 2) Just as in the case of Mr. Mehta's "Fiber Grid, Inc. (Seychelles) it would appear that Mr. Uerlings' corporate entity is not even using the vast majority of its AFRINIC-assigned IP address space. Rather, it would appear that both Mr. Mehta and Mr. Uerlings are using the great majority of their assigned IP address blocks only as passive investments at the present time. I guess they are both just sitting on these investments, waiting for the prices to go up. In case I have failed to make myself abundantly clear, I am requesting the Board to immediately invoke Sections 8.2(ii) and 8.2(v) of the AFRINIC Bylaws with respect to the corporate entities of Mr. Abizdeid, Mr. Mehta, and Mr. Uerlings. The evidence shows that they all stand in clear violation of Section 6.1(i) of the Bylaws, and have, I believe, for quite some time now. On that basis, their memberships MUST be terminated according to the Bylaws.
