[PC-NCSG] A working group to develop recommendations on new gTLD auction proceeds

Fri Mar 13 03:22:18 EET 2015

Hi Amr,

well Glen sent me a reminder already. I don't really think we need 1 week
to make decision here since it is about expressing support or not for such
effort.
myself I am in favor, having something cross-community would be helpful but
like Avri I will participate regardless the setting.
btw we have to endorse the comment on Policy and Implementation report
which was covered during the last webinar this week.

Best,

Rafik
