Update on the Policy & Implementation team

[Amr Elsadr]

Thanks for this, Avri. I have also been failing to attend and contribute to this WG over the past couple of months. I plan on re-engaging, and the links you sent are a great way to get up-to-speed on the discussions that have been taking place.

Thanks again.
