[council] FW: [SOAC-Leaders] Fwd: SOACs Feedback on the Draft Gender Diversity & Participation Survey by 20 May

[Michael Oghia]

Hi everyone,

Thanks for sending this Stephanie. I just went through and added
comments/suggestions/edits, but I highly encourage others to check it,
especially women on this list that participate in ICANN to see if you think
anything is missing and to comment on my edits.

Best,
-Michael
