<div dir="ltr"><div dir="auto">Hi all,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Hope you are recovering from Abu Dhabi meeting. I am sending this email to list several possible activities for coming weeks and planning for our actions as PC:</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div>Procedural:</div><div><br></div><div dir="auto"><ul><li>Setting the new PC: I would like to ask Farzaneh as NCSG chair to send emails to NCUC and NPOC chairs in order to appoint/confirm their representatives to PC for the coming year. Elected councilors who just started their terms are members of the new PC, plus the NCSG chair as ex-officio. NCUC EC is going to be announced soon and I think they can do this in coming days.<br></li><li>After that, PC should elect its chair and possibly vice-chair. <br></li></ul></div></div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><div><div>from the charter:</div></div></div><div><div><div>"2.5.3.
