[Gnso-newgtld-wg] - Welcome to the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG

I would like to nominate Steven Coates for Co-Chair . Steven is very active
in the Non-Contracted party house and has a very good knowledge of the 
process.

He is an excellent leader and is very well organized.

He also brings a "fresh perspective" into the group .  We really need fresh
and enthusiastic volunteers here and Steven as a co-chair would be an 
excellent addition.
