[NCSG-Discuss] NCUC News: Teams and Listservs

[Alain Berranger]

NPOC-Voice and NPOC-Executive Committee email discussions are open to all
via http://npoc.org/ .

1) The NPOC listserve public archives are located at:

http://forum.icann.org/lists/npoc-voice/

2) The NPOC - Executive Committee listserve public archives are located at:

http://forum.icann.org/lists/npoc/

3) We publish our very modest financial statements, also at http://npoc.org/

4) For the last two months, i.e. since ICANN has provided the service, our
monthly call audios and transcripts are also available at http://npoc.org/

I think this is as transparent as it gets...

Cheers, Alain
