Dear Amr, This is really terrific - thank you! What an impressive group of fellows this is - we will be lucky to have their views in the constituency. I like the idea of a formal letter to address the fellows and introduce NCUC to them. Thank you, Robin On Mar 24, 2011, at 3:27 PM, Amr Elsadr wrote: > Thanks for the draft Brenden.

Peters Omoragbon expressed his intent to join NCUC after our participation at the Fellowship morning meeting. The NGO that he manages in Nigeria has also been an ALS with AFRALO since the Nairobi meeting where he attended his first ICANN meeting. > > May I suggest that when emailing this group, we draft a more customized and personal email addressing the fellows? That would make more sense to me considering that several of our members have already had a meeting with them; be it as brief as it was. > > As for President Clinton, I would guess that a more elaborate communiqué might be in order. We’ve already had our minute and a half with him. Perhaps it would now be prudent to include an outline of some of the issues NCUC is currently tackling, and why we think he might want to personally (or The Clinton Foundation) join NCUC’s ranks along with an attached copy of our charter for membership eligibility with the message we send him. What do you think? > > Thanks. > > Amr Elsadr M.D. > Chief Operating Officer > Tele-Med International > http://www.telemedint.net > Tel: +2(023)534-6098 > Fax: +2(023)534-6029 > > From: NCSG-NCUC [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Brenden Kuerbis > Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 6:46 PM > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Re: Great Meeting at San Fran > > > > > On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 12:25 PM, Avri Doria <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > On 22 Mar 2011, at 12:09, Amr Elsadr wrote: > > > And finally, I thought that I should put it on the record that when I met President Clinton, I took the time to speak with him (although I was instructed not to) and told him that we need help in non-commercial and that it would be great if he joined (although don’t hold your breath that he will).

And this need not be more than a simple one-page letter which I've started - http://piratepad.net/12wRNGqtR2 - that contains a call to action to join NCUC. Anyone should feel free to edit as they see fit. Should we try to follow up with any new potential members that we met in SF by end of next week? > > > > a. > > IP JUSTICE Robin Gross, Executive Director 1192 Haight Street, San Francisco, CA 94117 USA p: +1-415-553-6261 f: +1-415-462-6451 w: http://www.ipjustice.org e: [log in to unmask]
