Hi Bill!

"... It appears there will be at least 40 NCUC members in Brazil, maybe
more….we’ll probably be the single largest ICANN contingency there,
although staff may come close."

Really! That's great! Something to highlight in the next meeting with the
ICANN board in London together with the work done related to NM as NCUC!
