Dear all,

On behalf of the APNIC Executive Council, I'm happy to announce the EC's latest appointment to the NRO Number Council (therefore also the ASO Address Council), for 2014.

The EC has appointed Aftab Siddiqui to the seat, effective from 1 Jan 2014, replacing Andy Linton after Andy declined to be considered again.

As some will know, Aftab Siddiqui is Manager of Network Operations and Projects at Cyber Internet in Pakistan, and he has been involved for some time in APNIC policy matters. He's been heavily involved in SANOG and also in the PK IPv6 task force. Aftab was a candidate in the NC election that was held during APNIC 36, and his nomination details ate here:

Please join me in congratulating Aftab on this appointment!

With this email I also want to thank Andy Linton, very sincerely, for his service and hard work on the AC/NC.

All the best, and happy xmas to all,

Paul Wilson.
