Hi Bruna, Raphael, All,
I hope all is well.  I see some pretty hot topics on the list for  
possible plenary sessions. Do you know which ones are going forward?   
Also, do we have speakers for them?

If not, I would be happy to volunteer for #1. I've studied Registry  
Voluntary Commitments (RVCs) which is the new name for private Public  
Interest Commitments closely and held a conference on them in 2019.  
I'm one of the few who has looked at this material closely.  My  
CircleID piece on "The Sad Story of PICs" was a crowd-pleaser in 2020.

I'd be happy to volunteer if NCSG needs a panelist (and I strongly  
recommend we have one on this panel as the major underlying issue is  
whether a new gTLD registry can unilaterally strip the rights of its  
registrants - without consensus policy, without oversight, without any  
bounds or limits.  There are huge implications here for non-commercial  
organizations).

Not sure the status - so I thought I would ask you.  Tx for all the  
organizing you doing for ICANN70!

Best, Kathy
