<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Bonjour, </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Je suis un simple
lecteur occasionnel.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Je trouve que cette
crise est une excellent occasion de faire fonctionner la liste,
bien que je me doute que beaucoup ici doivent ces jours-ci
s’activer à essayer de résoudre/contourner le problème.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">D’après les infos
disponibles, les pays sont inégalement impactés:</p>
<ul style="margin: 1.2em 0px;padding-left: 2em;">

</ul>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Le communiqué de Main
One:</p>

</ul>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">À propos des
réparations:</p>
<blockquote
style="margin: 1.2em 0px;border-left: 4px solid rgb(51, 117, 221); padding: 0px 1em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); quotes: none;">
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">This process might
take 1-2 weeks for repairs while about 2-3 weeks of transit
time may be required for the vessel to pick up the spares and
travel from Europe to West Africa once the vessel is
mobilised.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Il semble qu’au moins
une partie du matériel pourrait ne pas être stocké sur le
continent…</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Avis/commentaires des
professionnels de la liste sur la situation ? Si la situation
avait déjà été discutée et des pistes d’améliorations proposées
? </p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Cdt,</p>
<hr>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Good morning and a
good start to the week to everyone!</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Just a casual reader
here.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">I think this crisis
is a great opportunity to liven up the ML a bit, although I
suspect that many here must be busy these days trying to
solve/work around the problem.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">According to
available information, countries are unequally affected:</p>
<ul style="margin: 1.2em 0px;padding-left: 2em;">
<li style="margin: 0.5em 0px;"><a
href="https://blog.cloudflare.com/undersea-cable-failures-cause-internet-disruptions-across-africa-march-14-2024"
class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://blog.cloudflare.com/undersea-cable-failures-cause-internet-disruptions-across-africa-march-14-2024</a></li>
</ul>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">The statement from
Main One:</p>
<ul style="margin: 1.2em 0px;padding-left: 2em;">

</ul>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Regarding the
repairs:</p>
<blockquote
style="margin: 1.2em 0px;border-left: 4px solid rgb(51, 117, 221); padding: 0px 1em; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); quotes: none;">

time may be required for the vessel to pick up the spares and
travel from Europe to West Africa once the vessel is
mobilised.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">It seems that at
least part of the equipment could not be stored on the
continent…</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Professionals’
opinions/comments on the list about the situation? If the
situation had already been discussed, and improvement
suggestions proposed?</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">Regards,</p>
<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1.2em !important;">O.Yann</p>
