[Community] Boubakar Barry for Afrinic Board of Directors

[Omo Oaiya]

Dear Colleagues,


Those not voting physically in Djibouti and have not yet nominated a proxy,
or voted online can follow these instructions to do so at
https://my.afrinic.net/ before the deadline *Thursday 5th June 2014*


*---------------------------------------------------------------*

*Who can vote or generate a proxy?*

Any active member in good standing.


*Who cannot vote or generate a proxy?*

   1. LEGACY and MEMBER-ONLY categories are not allowed to vote/generate a
   proxy.
   2. If your account has an outstanding balance, voting will not be
   accessible. Any unpaid invoices would need to be cleared prior.


*Appointing a proxy*


*What is a proxy?*

It is possible to authorize a proxy to cast a (physical paper) vote on your
behalf. This is done by generating a proxy authorization form, signing it
and physically handing it over to the person that will cast the vote on
your behalf. The proxy form is handed over to the AFRINIC staff at the
meeting venue in exchange for a paper ballot. You can also send a scanned
copy to election-proxy[at]afrinic.net <election-proxy at afrinic.net> at least
24h before the beginning of the AGMM (it is recommended that you also copy
your representative on that e-mail).


*How to generate a proxy form?*

Just navigate to Elections->Access Election Centre and choose the 'proxy'
option. Once you have generated a proxy form, you will not be able to cast
a vote through the E-Voting system.


*Casting a vote*


*Who can cast a vote using the E-Voting system?*

Any registered contact of the organisation. The contact must have a BPKI
certification for secure authentication.


*How to cast a vote using the E-Voting system?*

Navigate to Elections->Access Election Centre. Choose "Vote" in the current
active election and proceed.

You will be ask to present a valid BPKI certificate.


*How to get a BPKI certificate?*

If you are an Administrative contact of the organization, you will be
prompted to send a request by mail to hostmaster[at]afrinic.net
<hostmaster at afrinic.net>. If not, a button "Request BPKI certificate" will
appear on your screen and this request will be forwarded to the
Administrative contacts of your organisation.


*IMPORTANT NOTE: The BPKI secure authentication feature only works on
Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer. *

Many thanks!
