font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>Dear Whois Review Team,<br>
<br>
I hereby introduce Michael Yakushev, Managing Director of DST Advisors, part of
Digital Sky Technologies in Russia who will be my designate for the Whois
Review Team. Michael is also the Chairman of the Coordination Board for
the ccTLD .RU. He has years of experience in Internet governance issues
as well as ccTLD operations, including Whois issues.<br>
<br>
I greatly appreciate Michael’s willingness to serve and hope you will
warmly welcome him to the group.<br>
<br>
My intention is to have Michael shadow me on the calls leading up to Cartagena
and to join me at the Cartagena meeting, where I will then pass over the baton
and exit stage right.<br>
<br>
Many thanks,<br>
<br>
Rod<br>
