Sabri, I agree that the donation request is within the AUP. But the discussion then devolved into details on a private legal dispute, with both sides airing their grievances. There is a place for that discussion. It’s just not NANOG. -mel

Hi,
If, like me, you feel like chipping in a little bit of money to help AfriNIC make payroll despite Heng having gotten their bank accounts frozen, some of the African ISP associations have put together a fund, which you can donate to here:
Top Gear Top Tip: set a "travel notification" on your credit card prior to donating. It took me 3 failed attempts and 2 fraud notifications to get a payment through. The fraud notifications were delayed as well. Chase credit card.
"Verified by VISA". Right.
And yes Mel, you're right about NANOG's AUP but this is not a legal matter, this is to keep AfriNIC in business...
Thanks,
Sabri
