    <pre wrap="">Dear colleagues, 

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) will hold the Fifth World \
Telecommunication/ICT Policy Forum (WTPF) in Geneva this May. This event is being \
convened specifically to look at Internet-related public policy matters. 

The primary input document to this meeting is a report by the ITU Secretary General, \
including six Opinions agreed to by an Informal Experts Group (IEG) that met three \
times over the past year. These Opinions touch on issues including management of \
Internet number resources, encouraging IPv6 adoption, support for Internet Exchange \
Points (IXPs), multi-stakeholder governance and Enhanced Cooperation. 

The five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) - AFRINIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE \
NCC have drafted responses to the five Opinions that relate directly to the RIRs' \
areas of expertise and coordination. A document containing these responses has been \
published at: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" \
href="http://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/RIR_WTPF13_2.pdf">http://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/RIR_WTPF13_2.pdf</a>

The full Secretary General's report (including the six Opinions) is available at:

I invite you to post any questions or comments regarding this document to the AFRINIC \
Government Working Group mailing list (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" \
