Hello,

The question was asked to Jochen, but I want to answer too.

First of all what is the difference between someone who works at ICANN and
someone who works at IETF or AfriNIC ?

Can someone who works at IETF or AfriNIC and is competent in the field do
the job ? That is fix the .mu problem ?

What if we have competent Mauritians, who also work at IETF or AfriNIC, who
can solve the .mu problem ? Do we still need someone from outside Mauritius
?

I believe we should let competent Mauritians solve the problem. I don't
mind letting any competent foreigner too, but he/she must been living in
Mauritius for a couple of years at least (either working or running a
business here in Mauritius).

Regards,
Nadim Attari
