<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>All:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I wanted to let you know of a very recent change in my
circumstances.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>As you know, I have worked with the ISPCP since its
inception and worked on behalf of ISPs as part of the early white paper
process. In my roles with the Commercial Internet eXchange and later with
BT, I have had the privilege of working with some of the most committed and
dedicated people from the ISP industry. While I am going to miss that
work, I have to let you know that I will no longer be part of the ISPCP
Constituency effective immediately.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’m leaving BT and moving to the IANA in a role that
supports the IETF, IP addressing functions, and root zone management.
It’s a challenging role and I’m looking forward to it.
Needless to say, with this change I can no longer participate in the ISPCP.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Regrettably, this means that I will not have the opportunity
to serve as your Councilor in the coming term and that I will have to wind up
my role as the Constituency Secretariat. I apologize if the timing, which
is very unfortunate, puts undue stress on the ISP Constituency. It
certainly wasn’t intended to do that, but I fear that this short notice,
so soon before the Seoul meeting, will be a distraction that the constituency
doesn’t need during these uncertain times in the gNSO.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Finally, let me say thanks to all the ISPCP members who have
worked so diligently on behalf of the ISP community within ICANN. My
thanks go to each of you for all your years of dedication and work – too
often, the ISP community gets no thanks for the enormous number of hours it
puts in on ICANN-related issues.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>You’ll still be seeing me around – in ICANN
meetings, in RIR meetings and other places where the IANA has a role or
voice. I’ll just be wearing a different hat!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Many thanks to you all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
