Philip, thanks so much!

 

Bene is adding Marie to the BC lists and also will invite a picture from Marie, 
to add to
the 

MEET the BC document, which we are finalizing for Costa Rica.   Your 
participation in the BC
in your past role in AIM,

and your contributions as past chair of the DNSO Council [for newcomers: GNSO] 
and as a BC
Councilor

remains with us in a contribution to building the BC. 

 

Thanks for your briefing for Marie, and we look forward to welcoming her, and 
incorporating
her into the 

active and vital roles that you have played for AIM in the BC, and in ICANN. 

 

Marilyn Cade

BC Chair
