<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to bring up this request again for your attention, if your community group has not yet appointed its representative(s) to the upcoming IANA Naming Functions Review team. If it will be helpful, we are happy to convene a call with
our colleagues who will be supporting the IFRT, who can describe the expected time commitment and scope of work as well as answer any questions you or your members may have. Please let me know if you would like us to organize such a call and if you will need
more time to make the necessary appointments. Thank you!<o:p></o:p></p>

<a href="mailto:IFR2-team@icann.org">IFR2-team@icann.org</a>. For your convenient reference, here is the link to the original letter requesting the appointments:

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am writing to ask if the RySG, RrSG, CSG and NCSG might wish to seek an extension to the suggested deadline by which each of your groups were to nominate representatives to the upcoming IANA Functions Review Team (IFRT). As you may recall,
my colleague Jennifer Bryce <a href="https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/bryce-to-reynoso-et-al-06apr23-en.pdf">
wrote</a> to the SOAC community leaders in April 2023, asking for appointees to be named by
<b>30 June 2023</b>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ICANN org had suggested this deadline as under the <a href="https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article18">
Bylaws</a> the next IANA Naming Functions Review must commence no later than five years after the previous IFRT was convened. In this case, this means that the ICANN Board will need to convene the second IFRT by mid-September 2023.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We understand that the community workload is currently very heavy and that it may not have been possible for each of your groups to name your representative (or two representatives, in the case of the RySG) by the suggested deadline. Please
let me know if an extension will be helpful, in which case perhaps I can assist by seeking an extension to the end of this month (July 2023).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
