[ripe-list] Endorsement of Afrinic board candidates

I was shocked when I saw the email in the Afrinic list. For reference:
https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/community-discuss/2019-July/003140.html

I will say even more.

There is an explicit code of conduct for the members?

There is a way for an ASO-AC member to be displaced?

Regards,
Jordi

    Hi RIPE ASO/AC delegates,
    
    I just read the following on the Afrinic community mailing list, and got a bit concerned:
    
    > My name is Wafa Dahmani from Tunisia, an active member of the African community and more specifically AFRINIC: member of the appeal committee; ASO / AC excom member and Ex Chair of Governance Committee '(GC) at AFRINIC.
    > I contact you to solicit your votes for the following candidates:
    
    > [etc]
    
    While she doesn't explicitly state that she is soliciting votes on behalf of the ASO/AC, it does seem to imply it.
    
    I found it hard to believe that the ASO/AC would agree with this statement as sent by Wafa. I know questions about this have already been sent to the ASO/AC, but I would like some feedback from our own delegates. I wonder whether you were aware of this and what your positions on this are. I suspect that this was not something agreed to by the ASO/AC, or at least not by our own delegates, but I would like that confirmed please :)
    
    I though long whether to cross-post this to the ripe-list and in the end decided that I should, for transparency's and accountability's sake.
    
    Cheers,
    Sander
