<div style="direction:ltr">Hello Kurt and ePDP Members. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div style="direction:ltr">I’m James Bladel, Vice President of Global Policy at GoDaddy. I’ve been involved at ICANN for over 10 years, and during that time I’ve contributed to or led several PDPs, two Review Teams, and served two terms on the GNSO Council
(2 years as Chair). As a Registrar, GoDaddy manages over 75 million domain names for 18 million customers around the world. And while we started in the US, we now have a significant presence in Europe and therefore substantial exposure to GDPR. I’m hopeful
that this group will move quickly and purposefully to complete its recommendations before the Temporary Spec expires, and look forward to working with everyone. </div>

<div class="PlainText">Hello Everyone: <br>
<br>
I hope you don’t mind that I write to you informally from time to time on matters that come to mind where I think it would be of benefit to communicate immediately and not wait for meetings.
<br>
<br>
In the interest of the meeting tomorrow going smoothly, I want to call your attention to one item in the agenda and “Welcome” note that were sent yesterday.
<br>
<br>
We have replaced the typical introductory remarks where we go around the table and allow each member to introduce themselves. That would take over an hour of the two-hour session and I want to make better use of your time.
<br>
<br>
Instead, 2-3 minutes will be allotted to each group to describe its goals for this collaboration and whatever else the members want to describe:e.g., the names of the members or any challenges / opportunities they face. Please select a member of your group
to speak for all of you. I have also asked that each member send in a brief “bio” (2-4 sentences) that we can post in the team wiki pages. (We have received one so far.)<br>
<br>
Thank you for making this adjustment. <br>
<br>
Also, I aspire to start the meeting right at the appointed hour. Please login to the meeting slightly before that time. I have sat through many meetings that start late, calculating the combined hourly rate of attendees waiting for the meeting to start. Thanks
in advance for making your best efforts here. I certainly understand you have professional matters that must be addressed and might delay your entry from time to time.<br>
<br>
I hope you found this useful. I welcome your feedback at anytime. My contact information is below.
<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
Kurt<br>
