Re: [npoc-voice] Obituary Alain Berranger

["Sam Lanfranco" <lanfran@xxxxxxxx>]

I too would like to pay tribute to the memory of Alain Berranger.

I knew Alain for almost twenty years. He was at Canada's International 
Development Research Centre (IDRC) in Ottawa when in the mid-1990s I and 
several others built the Bellanet Secretariate, housed at IDRC and an early 
effort at using ICT for global development collaboration. Marie-Laure has 
kindly written about Alain so I will add nothing. It was Alain who brought me 
into the NPOC, NCSG, ICANN orbit.

I too will miss him, though his memory lives on in NPOC and ICANN's 
multistakeholder model.
