[cc-humanrights] Stepping down as chair

[Niels ten Oever]

Dear Austin,

Unfortunately, the has been no activity whatsoever in the implementation team. So there is painfully little to report. I also asked on the implementation team list what next steps are, and I did not get any response. Perhaps we could ask NCUC/NCSG leadership to hear more about what the planning of the ICANN board vis a vis the bylaw changes, etc.

Happy to join the call of course.

Best,

Niels

And as such, I have no scope within my work to continue working on ICANN. Of course, I am personally to contribute in the figure however it cannot be so in the role of a Chair anymore. Thank you to all of you I've met over these years and who've made our work in this group much stronger!
