<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Congratulations on achieving the important milestone of IANA transition! And thank you for the kind notes which I have shared with the Sidley team. I know I speak for the
team when I say that w</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">e greatly appreciated the opportunity to contribute to the IANA transition and enhanced ICANN accountability and to work with the committed and energized CCWG-Accountability

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The heroes in this effort are the co-chairs, rapporteurs, members, and participants of CCWG and CWG who gave meaning to multi-stakeholder bottom-up consensus; the hard-working
and dependable ICANN staff who provided the backbone support for these efforts, and ICANN legal and the Board who listened and pushed and always had the best interests of ICANN at heart.
