GoDaddy.com on the MAG. I am on the MAG Steering Committee and have been
appointed by the Steering Committee to represent the MAG on dotMOBI

To: Registrars Constituency <registrars at gnso.icann.org>

Thank you Bob for the nomination for the GNSO Council seat, and thanks
to Jon, Ross, and Bruce for the seconds. I accept the nomination and if
elected I would represent the Constituency on the Council with all due
respect and diligence, consulting the Constituency and Executive
Committee on all relevant matters and decisions. I believe my work on
various Task Forces and as the Constituency Vice Chair and CTO over the
last three years demonstrate that commitment.

I look forward to any questions or discussion the Constituency may have
regarding my nomination.
