[gnso-rpm-wg] Mark Your Calendars: First organizational call for RPM WG set for April 21

Fri Apr 8 21:06:46 UTC 2016

Dear all,

I would also like to second Susan Kawaguchi´s nomination of Phil Corwin as
chair of this PDP Working Group with enthusiam!

I have also worked closely with Phil in the Business Constituency and thus
have been following his tireless committed work and his remarkable
contributions to both the BC and the GNSO Council, where he has a well
respected
and influential voice. Moreover, he has substantial expertise and
experience on RPMs and all related issues relevant to this WG.

Also,  as this is a managerial role, I believe it is important to highlight
that he has the organizational skills and the preparation needed for the
task as well as the ability to identify common ground and facilitating
consensus solutions, ensuring fair hearing of all views.

Thank you!
Gabriela
