<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black;font-size:12pt">As you know, ICANN org is actively
monitoring developments worldwide concerning the novel coronavirus (2019-nCov).
We take the health and safety of our staff, Board and community members very
seriously and wish to do the right thing to continue to ensure that everyone
remains safe and informed. In this regard, you may have heard that some
international conference organizers are, like ICANN, monitoring and evaluating
the locations and timings of their events. Earlier today, the GSM Association
(GSMA) announced that it was canceling the Mobile World Congress (MWC) that had
been scheduled to take place in Barcelona from 24-27 February 2020.</span></p>

write now to ask whether you have heard any concerns from amongst your members
or other community members about traveling to Cancun for ICANN67. While we have
no immediate plans to cancel or reschedule the Cancun meeting, it will be very
helpful to hear the community's feedback so that we can take it into account in
our planning. As such, please let me or David Olive know if you or your group
have information or concerns you would like to share. In the meantime, please
refer to this blog post by ICANN org's Vice-President for Security Operations
for information on how ICANN org is handling this important matter:</span><span style="font-size:12pt"> </span><a href="https://www.icann.org/news/blog/an-update-on-the-coronavirus-and-its-impact-on-icann" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue;font-size:12pt">https://www.icann.org/news/blog/an-update-on-the-coronavirus-and-its-impact-on-icann</span></a><span style="font-size:12pt">.
