    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">Dear
      Salman,</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;"><br>
    </p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">Thanks
      for your elaborate information on the locations, good information
      indeed.</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">We
      are NOT reconsidering MENOG9 location. It is OMAN for sure. The
      agreement with the HOST is done already.</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;"><br>
    </p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">We
      were simply getting feedback from the community on the locations
      they might want to see us go to next. We already have an excellent
      plan for locations we simply had a problem with MENOG8 being in
      Syria for the known reasons. Thats all!</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;"><br>
    </p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">So
      to clarify, MENOG has been sailing quite nicely and smoothly over
      the past few years, thanks for the support of the community such
      as yourself and many others who offered to either host or sponsor
      MENOG. We have not had any issues in the past.</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;"><br>
    </p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">Once
      again, we were simply getting community feedback on locations ..
      that should help us provide more convenient locations in the
      future.</p>
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0pt; direction: ltr;">Regards..<br>

          leaves Tunisia, true the situation is not pleasant at the

          if the election is a success by July then the situation will
          be very attractive, primarily due to the following:</font></div>
      <div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000"><br>
        </font></div>
      <div><font class="Apple-style-span" color="#000000">1. The country

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>What remain is the 'territory' issue, which in my opinion can
        be solved if RIPE and AfriNIC hold a joined regional meeting.</div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Next, of course, is Egypt, the political situation is still
        moderate, but if Cairo is avoided (perhaps we should consider
        Sharm-El-Sheikh or Alexandria) for better security it might be

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Morocco is way too far for some participants otherwise has

      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>In short the places to be considered (order of listing
        matters): 1. Jordan, 2. Oman, 3. Tunisia, 4. Egypt, 5. Morocco.</div>
