Could you please post the article Waudo is referring to hereunder for those at large. Thanks Harry -----Original Message----- From: bounce-kiplist-cl-98713@lyris.idrc.ca [mailto:bounce-kiplist-cl-98713@lyris.idrc.ca] On Behalf Of Waudo Siganga Sent: 04 October 2005 22:41 To: KIPlist Subject: Re: F-Root Server goes live in Nairobi Hi All, That was a very informative piece on Internet Governance that Walu ran in his Sunday column. This was the first time that I have seen the issue of IG covered anywhere in the African press. The issue will be with us for a long long time. Oversight (Forum) and core resources management (from 4 WGIG proposals to 10 at PrepCom III) will both most certainly not be resolved by or even through Tunis. As for the root servers, I have been having a nagging question for our friend Michuki: is there a particular reason to have 2 root server mirrors sitting in the same room (in your message of 17th September you indicated that the I-Server mirror is imminent) when these servers contain the same data?? I have always imagined - maybe wrongly - that one reason for having multiple servers is to better manage risk and geographic dispersion helps in that regard. Kind Regards Waudo Siganga At 02:55 PM 10/3/2005, you wrote:
good to have an instance of the F-Root Server hosted here.
However, for this to translate into savings (bandwidth) for local communities, we must have the question of local content addressed. In the absence of this, most users (African) will continue to request external access to foreign websites and in so doing have little or no regard to the F-Root Server.
walu.
