    A most warm welcome to all!  I am one of your elected
    representatives on the GNSO, and although I am still almost brand
    new in that role, I would be happy to try to find answers to any
    questions you may have on policy and the GNSO.  I was also the
    privacy expert on the Experts Working Group on the WHOIS, and would
    be very happy to talk about WHOIS and privacy if that is of
    interest.<br>
    So happy to have you all join us, there is lots of work for all and
    we look forward to collaboration!<br>
    Kind regards, <br>
    Stephanie Perrin<br>
