5.    MoU with APNIC.   See Holly’s update : (5 mins)

I have had a chat with the CEO of APNIC at the Oz IGF - and he is very interested in an MoU with us - and wants to talk about what would be in it.  The model is the one between LANIC and AFRALO - but ours would be different - APNIC already provides a lot of regional training, and I"m not sure we want the same level of funding since the APAC region's needs are different.  But please have a look at the attached, and at the APNIC site (APNIC.org) to see all that they offer anyway.  I'd like to be able to finalize something with APNIC in BA - and need to know what the APAC needs are first.
