Bonjour chers membres de la communauté, Merci @Marcus pour le rappel, chers tous, c'est surprenant que quelqu'un qui est prompt à répondre avec un long message, à de simple remarques ou observation n'allant pas dans le sens de sa compréhension des textes d' Afrinic, soit jusqu' aujourd'hui aux abonnés absents, pour répondre à une simple question de M. John, le DG d'ARIN ? alors même qu'il réagit encore à d'autres messages, mais feint de ne pas réagir à celui de M. John. Que peut-on déduire de cette réaction ?? Aidez-moi à comprendre chers membres. Merci.
