<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks Philippe.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If I can make one minor suggestion and that is the annual report. Historically we have done the annual report at the annual meeting to coincide with the re-appointment or new appointment of the GAC Liaison. My suggestion would be that
we either continue to do that at the annual meeting or alternatively if for whatever reason you believe it should be prior to the annual meeting, then perhaps September 1<sup>st</sup> of each year. I can endeavor to get my annual report to the Council at
that time this year as that is much closer to what I was expecting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If, however, you would like to stick with earlier, perhaps in starting next year it becomes due at the ICANN Policy meeting as opposed to a July 1<sup>st</sup> date.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Other than that, I am good.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="FR">Dear Councilors,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="FR"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks Paul, Manju, Desirée and Jeff for weighing in on the renewal of the GAC position.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With those inputs, leadership would like to suggest we follow what we have for councilors and add a limit of 4 years with a review every year, possibly more thorough than what we have been doing so far. The attached call for candidates
is intended to reflect this. An alternative would be to strictly follow a councilor’s mandate and have a 2 year term without review. The former (4 year), however, has our preference. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks again to those who shared their views, and to others in advance whether there’s any objection to this change.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
