<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Thanks James Gannon for the update. It’s good to get a somewhat independent account of how the CSC is operating.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">You mention in your report that good working relationships have developed between the CSC and PTI. In that context, it will be important that ICANN finds a suitable replacement for Elise Gerich given her pivotal
