<p>Dear NCSG PC,</p>
<p>I would like to propose the addition of Pedro de Perdigão Lana to
this list. <br>
</p>
<p>Pedro, as many of you know, is the wizard behind many of our
recent comments. He is tireless in his work bringing new and old
members together, holding organizing calls, doing the follow-up
emails, editing, and finalizing comments for submission. <i>I
would say that this work has been invaluable in the last year,
and before. <br>
</i></p>
<p>That is not to take away from Farzi, Michaela, and everyone else,
all amazing! We are a good team.</p>
<p>But in many of the Applicant Guidebook and related comments, and
in our tireless (and little known work) on the Rights Protection
Mechanisms Implementation Review Team, Pedro and I wrote endless
emails and together reviewed many drafts of educational materials
(for the RPM IRT), edited new versions of the Trademark Claims
Notice (also RPM IRT), and worked with a larger group of NCSG
members to review and offer edits to many sections of the
Applicant Guidebook (comments to SubPro IRT). Together, we hope
we made key ICANN texts easier and more understandable to
registrants and newcomers. </p>
<p>Recognizing everyone's incredible efforts, on the matters above,
it is Pedro who finalized many of our comments and, after approval
by the PC, then worked with Tomslin to submit. <i>To make his
communication easier with this Policy Committee, and recognize
his ongoing work as a leader, teacher and writer of policy
comments in our community, I recommend that Pedro de Perdigão
Lana be added to our PC list.</i></p>
<p><i>Best regards,</i></p>
<p><i>Kathy</i></p>
