If you recall at the last ARIN meeting we saw
many of our NARALO members comment on the
ARIN Community Networks policy
<div><br>

<div>I spoke with ARIN staff about their
programs on community networks today and they
too are struggling with fee structure for
AFRNIC Membership from community networks.
Note they fund FIRE which has funded
community networks in Uganda and in South
Africa.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Perhaps we need to ask our community to
request financial support for ARIN for
community networks as well. <br>
