<p>Dear all,</p>
<p>My name is Farzaneh Badiei, I have been involved with launching the PersianIGF and am a part of the Secretariat of PersianIGF. Although communication is not within the realm of my responsibilities, as I suggested to send emails to MENOG mailing list I felt obliged to clarify a couple of things to this list.</p>
<p>PersianIGF is an Internet governance forum initiative that tries to facilitate discussion on Internet governance within the Persian speaking community . It is not affiliated with RIPE NCC nor MENOG. However, MENOG members especially Persian speaking MENOG members may be interested in getting engaged with PersianIGF. Hence, as a part of the outreach plan PersianIGF Secretariat has sent some emails to this mailing list which are specifically about getting engaged with PersianIGF and the announcement of Multi-stakeholder Advisory Group. As we are in the process of convening the Multistakeholder Advisory Group and the participation of technical community is of paramount importance, PersianIGF Secretariat felt it was appropriate to reach out to the MENOG community. We do not have access to any individual email addresses.<br /> <br /> Mr. Naderpour sent an email to info@persianigf.org and also secretariat@persianigf.org and asked the Secretariat not to send him emails. I would like to clarify that Mr. Naderpour received the email which was about the initial screening of MAG through the mailing list. PersianIGF Secretariat responded to this email which you have seen the response forwarded to MENOG mailing list by Mr. Naderpour.<br /> I just wanted to assure you that all the communications you may have received from PersianIGF Secretariat was through MENOG mailing list. We have not sent unsolicited emails to individual email addresses.</p>
<p>As we found it being of importance to engage with Persian speaking technical community, we did decide to use MENOG mailing list for doing such outreach. We do understand the feedback and will be very careful about the number of emails that are sent to this mailing list or any other mailing list.</p>
<p>If you need any more clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
<p>Farzaneh</p>

<br />> Steve, All,

<br />> Speaking in my capacity as a member of the Arab IGF MAG, while the Arab IGF is an open fora for anyone interested in Arab IG issues and debates, the term ?Arab? covers the 22 Arab states. While Iran is part of West Asia, it is not considered one of the 22 Arab states.
<br />>
<br />>
<br />>
<br />> On the issues related to RIPE NCC and MENOG, I am sure others can cover.

<br />> Hi,
<br />>
<br />> I had this also.
<br />>
<br />>
<br />>
<br />> Could someone clarify what the affiliation to MENOG and RIPE is and what the function is? I assume there is some difference from Arab IGF needing a separate Persian IGF? (The website suggests the focus only covers Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan)
