Re: [soac-newgtldapsup-wg] The CMR Team

[Alain Berranger <alain.berranger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Cintra,

can you please explain the reference to my name? Am I to interpret you
message below in such a way that you think I am conflicted in volunteering
to be on the CMR team? I'm quite puzzled? But indeed I will carefully
consider any possible conflict I did not think of... of course, if any NPOC
member applied for financial or other support, I would have to opt out of
any discussion related to such an application.

Alain
