<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>During our after-action meeting in Mexico
City, several of you suggested that we update the ICANN glossary to add some
basic terms that we refer to frequently but that are missing currently from
that compendium <a href="http://www.icann.org/en/general/glossary.htm">http://www.icann.org/en/general/glossary.htm</a>
. Definitions have been developed for the terms that were identified by
Council members (copied below for your reference, note also an updated
definition of WHOIS has been prepared). These definitions are currently
being translated and they will be added to the glossary when the translations
are complete. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>ICANN’s Corporate Affairs department will
be updating the glossary more broadly in the upcoming weeks. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We will also be adding a link to the
