Fellow Members of the SCI and Invaluable SCI Support Staff:</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif"> </DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif">It is somewhat
bittersweet for me to announce that IPC leadership has unanimously approved Lori
Schulman (representative of IPC member INTA) as the Alternate Representative of
the IPC, replacing me. This appointment is effective immediately (or as
soon as the SCI charter allows). Given my new role in the IPC, it was
beyond my capacity to give SCI as much attention as it deserves. </DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif"> </DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif">It has been an
honor and a pleasure to serve as a member of the SCI, and I'm glad that I have
been able to contribute to the smooth and efficient running of the GNSO Council
and ultimately the GNSO and the gTLD Policy Development Process.</DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif"> </DIV>
<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif">I'm sure that
Lori will be an excellent replacement, since she already has experience as a
member of the SCI, and will be continue to bring a great deal of real-world
experience to the SCI.</DIV>

<DIV class=gmail_default style="FONT-FAMILY: verdana,sans-serif">Thank you all
for letting me serve with you.</DIV>
