[Rt4-whois] [OT] Historic day in Brazil?

[Kathy Kleiman]

Dear Omar,
Thank you for sharing the legal advances in Brazil. I am sure it is no 
coincidence that you are in Brasilia when the legislation makes progress!

I hope you will continue to let us know the status of this bill -- and 
what "new generation rights" mean. Great progress!

Best,
Kathy
