Dear Robin First of all I want to congratulate you for your wonderful job and great energy that you are putting to the NCUC. 260% increase in membership since 2008 is amazing. A very big thank you for all your hard work. I do appreciate it a lot!!! I also want to thanks Konstantinos and Kathy for their wonderful contribution. Sydney was a great challenge and they did a wonderful job. Good policy is good substance. Keep the good work on this. As I mentioned to some of you a few weeks ago, I am not be able to engage in a meaningful way in the policy work of ICANN this year due to my other commitments. However, I will do one thing, which will be try to find an expert to help you in NCUC work. A big hug and thank you for everything, Katitza On Sep 25, 2009, at 4:14 PM, Robin Gross wrote: > NCUC's membership has reached 161 members from 53 different > countries, including 79 noncommercial organizations and 82 > individuals. > > This represents more than a 260% increase in membership since 2008. > > Thanks to all for your energy and contributions to the constituency! > > Let's keep growing and bringing new and different voices - > especially from those countries who haven't played much of a role in > ICANN policy in the past. > > SO ....
