there are many people who know ICANN as a name, but are not always aware what it is about. If you agree, I can add those paragraphs to the document.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I made a few suggestions. Being assertive is in our interest overall and instills confidence in the topic IMHO.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black;">I wonder if we should also try and template a vendor > customer letter? I expect that we'll be in a position (as will others) to use our relationships to support directly and being on the same
page seems important for this.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
