<div dir="ltr">Hi Thato and friends<div>Nice to hear from you on this.</div><div>It will be nice for us to have comments, looking at the concerns here, which is the Financial imperative to both PTI and IANA fiscal year as anticipated by ICANN.org.</div><div><br></div><div>This must be aligned with NCSG PC overall planned submission. As much as I appreciate the idea for FC input, it should be drived by PC so as to avoid any conflict.</div><div><br></div><div>The draft link shared was not of Rafik but ICANN.org for comments, but as the chair of PC, he should lead the way and process while FC should look at the draft and make input to the PC which will be communicated or incorporated accordingly.</div><div><br></div><div>In this spirit, can PC factor in till next week Wednesday for any input from FC in this regards, so as to carry it along to the community.</div><div><br></div><div>Don't have issues with the volunteers as more of them will be required.</div><div><br></div><div>NB:</div><div><br></div><div><b>In the meantime, we may have to ask NCSG stakeholders if they have question regarding this subject draft as required by ICANN.org with its deadline tomorrow (October 5).</b></div><div><br></div><div>Best of the day in our part of the world.<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">____<div>REMMY NWEKE, <font size="1">mNGE</font>, </div><div>Lead Strategist/Group Executive Editor, <br><span style="background-color:rgb(255,0,0)">DigitalSENSE Africa Media</span> <span>[<i>Multiple-award winning medium</i>]<br></span>(<a href="http://www.digitalsenseafrica.com.ng/businessnews" target="_blank">DigitalSENSE Business News</a>; <a href="http://www.itrealms.com.ng" target="_blank">ITREALMS</a>, <a href="http://www.naijaagronet.com.ng" target="_blank">NaijaAgroNet</a>)</div><div>Block F1, Shop 133 Moyosore Aboderin Plaza, Bolade Junction, Oshodi-Lagos<br>M: 234-8033592762, 8023122558, 8051000475, T: <a href="http://www.twitter.com/ITRealms" target="_blank">@ITRealms<br></a><div>Author: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/adecadeofictreportageinnigeria%E2%80%8E" target="_blank">A Decade of ICT Reportage in Nigeria</a></div><div><br></div><div><b><font color="#ff0000">2019 <a href="http://www.digitalsenseafrica.com.ng" target="_blank">Nigeria DigitalSENSE Forum on IG4D & Nigeria IPv6 Roundtable</a></font></b> </div><div>JOIN us!!</div><div><br></div><div>*Vice President, <a href="http://www.acsis-scasi.org/en/" target="_blank">African Civil Society on the Information Society (ACSIS</a>)</div><div><br></div><div><a href="https://gnso.icann.org/en/about/stakeholders-constituencies/ncsg" target="_blank"><b>NPOC FC Rep @ICANN Non-Commercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG)</b></a></div><div>_________________________________________________________________<br><font size="1">*Confidentiality Notice:* The information in this document and attachments are confidential and may also be privileged information.

I would now like to ask that <b><u>we formalise (though vote or agreement) the secretarial role within the FC</u></b> so that we have a lead penholder in our committee drafts and activities, like the current draft on FC Operational Procedures and this comment which must be submitted within 35 days and of course still solicit community input. This will ease coordination the FC but will still require that we work together and collaborate, <b>Farzi/Sthepanie </b>can help and support with this, so will I, hopefully the observers (constituency chairs) will also contribute.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Important NOTE</b>: I propose Remmy to oversee the drafting process of FC generated and driven public comments and inputs. The secretarial role will further be discussed and agreed upon in our next online meeting, maybe around November sometime.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Please provide your comments because we still have to build a community of volunteers and ensure that we retain them within FC activities, currently the 2 volunteers for the <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-uIAZKDp3qFb0ZxoXCH7eb7R6lKbkR3Mo9gKd7Jgokk/edit" target="_blank">PTI and IANA Ops plan and budget comment</a> are:</div><div>1.

(okay with me, what is your say?)<br></div><div><br> </div><div>I will communicate with him to get other people interested in volunteering on this PTI and IANA draft comment.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks.</div><div><br></div><div>Thato Mfikwe.<br></div></div>
