Dear All, thanks for your support!
The list has been created, africa(a)lists.cnsig.info (Thanks Nico).
I am on my way to the Africa Summit on Women and Girls in Technology
https://webfoundation.org/africasummit/ where I will be facilitating a
two
part workshop on CNs, together with TunapandaNet, Mesh Bukavu and APC,
so
great timing for this approval.
I will inform the Council on the interest and participation gained
through
the mailing list.
If you are interested to be included let me know.
Best, Sol
