the SCI because we have had to cancel the last two SCI calls due to the fact
that we have not had enough members dial in to discuss our Charter revisions
amongst other matters currently on the SCI work list. As you all know,
each stakeholder group/ constituency has two members of record. The
entire list of SCI members and alternates is noted here: <a

our regular calls, ICANN support staff, your Chair and Vice Chair would be very
grateful if those who are missing the calls could work out between your primary
and your alternate, which of the two of you (or better both of you) will attend
our upcoming Wednesday call so that we can do the work that we have been charged
to do. If, for any reason you cannot continue as a member of the SCI,
please have your constituency provide us with your replacement so that the work
can go on.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

for our call this Wednesday – with a specific request to RSVP – however
