<p class="MsoNormal">Hello CSC colleagues, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have accepted a new position at Verisign. Because the CSC provides oversight of the PTI function including root zone updates, which Verisign performs, there is concern of conflict of interest; therefore I am withdrawing from the CSC membership
reappointment process. I will still attend the September CSC meeting. Hopefully the RySG is able to find a suitable replacement by October 1 when my term is up.<o:p></o:p></p>
