[UA-discuss] 2023 UASG Chair Election Results

[Fariz Ahmadi]

Congratulations to Mr. Anil Jain on being appointed chair of the UASG. I wish you well in your position and hope you'll keep importance for universal acceptance , like your previous chair. In the last 4 years, Dr. Data has emphasised the value of universal acceptance and brought ICANN's attention to it.

What is the status of the vice chairs, when will they be finished, and I trust we have nominations by now?
