I accept this nomination and remain committed to the ICANN At Large. I was an ICANN nominee for Africa in the election and I have actively participated throughout this drawn out process.

I feel that it is essential for an African to be elected to the panel, but also recognise that other Africans must be given a chance. As such I strongly second the nominations of my colleagues, Daniel Chalef and Bretton Vine as well as Wawa Ngenya. Daniel has specific web and business skills that I am aware are valueble in this regard. Bretton is very strong on the policy and netizenship side.

I am focused - right now - on outreach and regional organisation of the At Large. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you like any further info on me, comments or questions.

kindly, Alan
