          <br>
          I would like to thank Raoul Plommer for nominating me for
          another (and<br>
          last) term on the GNSO Council, to all those who supported
          this<br>
          nomination and to those who reached out to encourage me to
          consider<br>
          going for that.<br>
          <br>
          But I cannot accept the nomination, I am considering leaving
          the<br>
          Council at the end of this term so that I can focus on other
          projects<br>
          going on in my professional life as well as in the Internet
          governance<br>
          space.<br>
          <br>
          I would like to thank the NCSG for the trust and support I
          have<br>
          received and for my Council colleagues for their patience with
          me,<br>
          their support and guidance. I have to admit it was not easy
          but I will<br>
          be leaving the Council in November with a lot of experience at
          all<br>
          levels and very good memories that I will cherish forever.<br>
          <br>
          I will remain active in the NCSG and the ICANN community and I
          look<br>
          forward to serving our stakeholder group in another capacity,
          in the<br>
          future.<br>
          <br>
          I would like to express my support for my friend Farell Folly
          who is<br>
          running for Council. I strongly believe he will do good as he
          has<br>
          proven to be a hard-working and very committed young man. I
          remain<br>
          available should he need any kind of advice or support during
          his time<br>
          on Council, if elected.<br>
          <br>
          My best regards,<br>
          Arsene<br>
