<div>Dr. Crocker has indicated that the new Bylaws went into effect automatically on Saturday. I am waiting for a call back from the California Secretary of State's office to verify that all appropriate documentation has been filed. I'll update you once I have heard from Mr. Padilla's office.</div>

Now that the lawsuit has been thrown out, I went looking to see any indication that the new bylaws have been properly filed with the state of California. But I didn't see any indication of that in what ICANN sent out to the NCUC list the other day.<br>
<br>
Has that happened? Has the multistakeholder Empowered Community taken the reins yet? Or do we still need to press for that to happen ASAP?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
