Members may recall Gary Hills has resigned as our secretariat with effect from 
31 December 2009 after many years of service. 
 In January we will hold elections for the new executive committee. That 
executive committee will be proposing a budget for 2010 including the level of 
secretariat services required bearing in mind what services may be available 
from ICANN. This means that a request for a new secretariat with effect from 1 
January 2010 is problematic as we may be changing what services we ask for 
within weeks. 
   
 Accordingly the BC Officers have agreed with Gary to retain his services on a 
consultancy basis until 28 February 2010 which will allow the newly elected 
executive committee to decide on a longer-term request for new secretariat 
services. 
   
 We would like to thank Gary for agreeing to do this.
