[council] Re: e-Crime and Abuse of the DNS Forum: a global perspective

Tue Mar 3 22:19:48 UTC 2009

Denise,

Thanks.  I regret that I am caught in a conflict and cannot  
participate for much of this meeting.  I see that Lyman Chapin is now  
moderating Session 3.  IMO, that's an improvement, so you're in a very  
good shape.

Steve
