if it about was about SELF-governance, arin would not be asked to
change policy would it?  when there is an afrinic, and it wants to
change local afrinic policy, that will be self-government.

until then, changing global policy for reasons of marketing
afrinic, see your Message-ID:
<Pine.GSO.4.44.0309301044360.26322-100000 at paixhost.pch.net>, is
gonna be hard to explain to my routers.  can we stick to policy and
engineering, and leave marketing to those better suited?

and please stop saying "americans," as arin covers more than the
united states.
