New communication rules: Kenya refuses to sign on
Kenya has refused to sign the new International Communication Regulations put together by a conference last week as divisions rocked the country’s delegation. http://www.nation.co.ke/Tech/-/1017288/1647632/-/1555o81/-/index.html Gideon Rop
thanks for the pointer, it seems likely there was some inter-ITU politics going on that we are not privy to. We should never have agreed to the AfCP in the first place, it was not a useful set of provisions in the context of the ITRs or in the context of Internet development across the Continent! -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek.
