Concluding Remarks

•  Substantial progress was achieved with a limited work force

•  SLD Diversity project (unachieved) should have been assessed further prior to targets being sent

•  Limited technical capacity resulted in dependence on service providers (e.g. delayed zone file migration & DNSSec implementation)

•  Accumulated surplus provides a positive contingency resource, but should not exceed 1 year’s budget
