<div>Hi everyone,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wanted to give everyone what I believe to be tremendously
positive news for the noncommercial community.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The Contracted Party House (CPH) of the GNSO has selected
Becky Burr for seat 13 on the ICANN Board. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Becky has been involved in this arena before ICANN even
existed. She has worked for the FTC, NTIA, as an attorney in
private practice and currently is the chief privacy officer at
Neustar. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Much of what the noncommercial community achieved in the
Accountability process can be attributed to Becky's
receptiveness to our ideas, approaches and input. Her skill,
diplomacy and ceaseless energy were demonstrated time and time
again. I believe in Becky Burr the NCSG will have someone on
the Board that we can always turn to and who will be receptive
to our input and honest in her response.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This is a good day for ICANN generally and the GNSO in
particular.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Congratulations Becky!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best,</div>
