<div><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:12pt;font-family:Verdana;" class="xfmc1"><br data-mce-bogus="1"/></span></div>
<div><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:12pt;font-family:Verdana;" class="xfmc1">Thanks for this update, Raphael. First of all, I hope that everyone will be healthy and everything will be solved for the better in your family.</span></div>

<div><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:12pt;font-family:Verdana;" class="xfmc1">1. As for the action items from ICANN 70, I started compiling notes from the sessions I signed up still during the meeting but I found very discouraging the level of participation of our members in the NCUC open meeting and just slightly more in NCSG one. I believe the current format of having all recordings available is perfect if a person really wants to catch up with discussions. Otherwise, we just spend time for nothing. I would suggest sending an email to the list encouraging members to listen to recordings.</span></div>

<div><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:12pt;font-family:Verdana;" class="xfmc1">2. Already replied to that mailing thread. I'm also ready to help during the webinar if any support is needed.</span></div>

<div><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:12pt;font-family:Verdana;" class="xfmc1">3. That's super fast that we are again facing elections. Feels like it only happened a moment ago.</span></div>

<div style="display:block;">
<div>Dear all,
<div><br/></div>
<div>Apologies again for canceling today's call. In view of what we need to discuss, I suggest we skip this one and address what needs to be addressed on list.</div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>Action items with deadlines in <b><span style="text-decoration:underline;">bold underline</span></b> below. </div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>Please note the several informational points regarding the elections. </div>
<div><br/></div>
<div>
<ol start="1" style="margin:5px 0;"><li>ICANN 70 session summaries: this is a final call from me for you to post your session summaries, if you have any. <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><b>Please do so by Friday COB</b></span>, so that our members' minds are not taken by other matters (mostly elections and ICANN 71)</li>
<li>NCUC Webinar: Milton, Adam, and Kathy have confirmed their willingness to participate for the historical/perspectives bit. I still haven't heard from Anriette so at this point I presume she will not be attending; I have reached out to Robin to see if she would be interested. <b><span style="text-decoration:underline;">We need to decide on a date. I will send you a separate email on that.</span></b></li>
<li>Elections: as per the now-usual calendar, we will be opening the candidate nomination period on 13 May, with check in beginning on 7. There will be a meet the candidates call at the end of May, with the elections themselves in June, before ICANN 71. I will be sending an email to the membership on those matters next week, containing all the details. Newly elected EC members will take their seat right after ICANN 72 in the fall. </li>
<li>Elections, again: do note that I will not be running for NCUC chair again, nor for any other leadership position. I will unfortunately have limited time to give to ICANN in the coming 12-18 months with what is going on family-wise for me. Hence the chair position will be open. </li>
<li>Elections, finally: as a reminder, if you wish to run for anything (including your own current position) you will need to be nominated and then be re-elected. You can self-nominate or ask one of your fellow NCUC members to do so, or just wait and hope someone nominates you (although thats a risky strategy ;)) Also, we are running these elections in parallel to those for the NCSG EC and the Council, should you wish to go towards that.</li>
</ol><div>Have a nice day,</div>
</div>
