Hi,

The NCSG-EC has unanimously decided to accept Beau Brendler's application for individual membership in the NCSG per the charter approved by the NCSG on 12 June 2010. 

Please join me in welcoming Beau to the NCSG.  He has been subscribed to this list.

I would also like to take this opportunity to inform you all that Beau and Alex have decided to combine their initiatives, the Consumer Constituency and the Consumer Interest Group, into a single Candidate Constituency.  Rosemary,as the vice-chair of the NCSG-EC and the Board Council appointee with responsibility of bringing consumer affairs issues to the GNSO, will be working with them to make this happen as soon and as smoothly as possible.  

I must, personally, indicate how very happy I am about this decision on the part of these NCSG members.

Best Regard from Cartagena de Indias.
