<DIV>Yes, thank you Stephane. In light of the most recent GAC letter to us and the Board's wish to do something about the JAS recommendations, I'd suggest that for the substantive topics, we focus - or at least begin with - the IOC/Red Cross issue and the Council's wish (or not) to respond further on the JAS final report.</DIV>

<DIV>thanks for putting this together.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>You might wish to add a few minutes to discuss which projects the new Councillors will be working on, in particular the NCAs. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>It is well understood that we have a full plate of work and limited resources and we should try to make the best use of our resources / expertise.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>As far as I am concerned, I am happy to say a few words about where I think I could add and be guided by the Council as to where I fit in best.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Thanks and see you all at 12.30.</DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>As you know, our ICANN meeting wrap-up sessions do not have a set agenda, as they are discussions and stock-taking sessions.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>As pointers to those discussions, here are a few topics we might like to consider. These are just suggestions stemming from the notes I have been taking throughout the week. We don't have to discuss them all during the wrap-up, and we can obviously add or delete topics as desired.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>See you all in Salon Vert room from 12:30 to 2pm today.</DIV>
