Re: [Community-Discuss] [arin-ppml] Update on Litigation Between AFRINIC and Cloud Innovation ltd
Ibeanusi made a good point, but Mike made a much better point. I must say afrinic and cloud innovation/larus are really duking it out at each other's throat, seeing how even afrinic is breaching court's order based on the link provided by Cheken. But i'll hold my reservations until i hear afrinic's side of their update. Would be nice to see what afrinic has to say on that.
