Hi. Mike Palage has resigned from the ICANN board, effective April 3. See <http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/msg02287.html> I think Palage has done well, ICANN's better for him having served. But who to replace him? Interesting times for ICANN: all the post-WSIS global politics; MoU, etc coming to an end; Vint and Alejandro term-limited so will leave the board next year (succession issue: Vint will not be an easy person to replace.) etc. etc. Adam
