[Announcement] Welcome to New NCSG Members, August 2025

[Sherry S]

Greetings! This is Sherry, freshly joined NCUC. I was in the Prague meeting in June and learnt a great deal about the group. I am very excited to get started and contribute to the discussion and policy work. I am still getting used to the mailing list setting and very new to policy work, and would appreciate any tips on how and where to get stared.
