Dear all,

i have followed and currently following all activities of CCWG and in fact
one of the main contributors for that . I am spending several hours in the
e-mail discussion and strongly defending the views of Governments.

As I informed you before, I am volunteered to closely work with those
interested in the accountability part of IANA transition related ICG
activities.

Regards

Kavouss
