[06:37] I am not going to say good morning because it is not here yet :P. [06:37] hahaha where are you? [06:37] Uruguay. [06:38] whew [06:39] morning [06:39] lol kilos you been reading the mails on that mailnig list? [06:39] some of them are entertaining ;p [06:39] ya but takes forever man [06:40] is it all about not wanting to go ipv6 or is there more involved [06:40] like costs [06:43] kilos heh, there is a lot more to it than that [06:43] firstly, afrinic hasnt run their financial models and doesnt know how to so they are being idiots [06:44] secondly, there are the geo-political and racial issues [06:44] thirdly, there is the issue that the proposal originated out of south africa and we already have space, and there are idiots who believe that south africa will end up with even more ipv4 space while the rest of the continent gets screwed, which is completely inaccurate since its the rest of the continent not south africa that will get the space under this [06:45] and forth, there are certain forces in AfriNIC who are hell bent on opposing anything I specifically do or stand for, because they arent happy with the fact that I called them out on their shocking non-existant corporate governance issues [06:45] so you're dealing with a very political issue :) [06:45] whew [06:45] good luck [06:46] lol, afrinic is always deeply political, there are 2 many factions, and its very? african? in that sense, the west africans and the east africans and the southern africans and the northern africans do not exactly see eye to eye [06:46] they all want total control [06:47] then add to the fact that the anglosaxan countries and the frankaphone countries never agree on anything just like the french and the english in the UK dont agree on anything [06:47] typical [06:47] heh the language and culture divide between english and french in africa is vast and almost unbridgeable [06:48] power gone wbb [06:59] Morning! [07:02] * HawkiesZA basks in the sound of crickets [07:05] good morning all [07:06] morning [07:07] afrinic almost sounds more trouble than its worth [07:08] magespawn sadly, without a functional afrinic, the internet in africa stops growing period [07:08] as completely broken as they are, they are still a critical part of the internet infrastructure in africa [07:08] and if they get any more broken, every single person using the internet will feel the effects [07:08] so *someone* has to try and stop the rot [07:09] from the discussion above, it is amazing any6hing has been done at all [07:11] hi superfly [07:11] HawkiesZA, too [07:11] morning Kilos [07:11] hi magespawn [07:11] Morning Kilos [07:14] hi Vince-0 [07:16] hi Vince-0 HawkiesZA [07:16] Howdy magespawn [07:19] haai [07:20] another kak day in paradise [07:21] haha new word for me undecillion [07:21] http://mybroadband.co.za/news/internet/51895-ipv6-is-sa-ready.html [07:21] 36 zeroes [07:25] hey magespawn http://test-ipv6.co.za/ [07:25] ty Kilos [07:25] seems like my setup can do it [07:33] so does one leave things as they are atm or follow the links to enable ipv6? [07:34] http://codeghar.wordpress.com/2012/08/03/ipv6-in-ubuntu-12-04/ [07:35] i think is largely a top down thing Kilos, it won't help you to do it if your isp is not [07:35] i see that oke uses vim. why not gedit or nano?
