        for registry rights to be embedded in the New gTLD applicant

      <p>I appreciate his many years of chairing of a PDP WG, but he's

        too. He has not been particularly fair or neutral -- until

              RrSG also. With this momentum going, I was hoping it might
              be across the board for the GNSO.</div>
            <div><br>
              Would the NCSG like to join? Nomination attached, which I

                      (understandable, when we're all flat out dealing
                      with pandemic arrangements),so I'll poke you again
                      one more time tomorrow after the IPC meeting if I
                      don't hear back between now and then.</li>
