[NCUC-DISCUSS] Welcome new NCUC members

[William Drake]

Hi

Since most everyone subscribed to ncuc-discuss is also subscribed to ncsg-discuss, you probably will have seen Rafik’s message earlier today welcoming new NCSG members.  The following individuals and organizations also elected to join NCUC and have now been added to this list, the membership data base, and the web listing http://www.ncuc.org/about/members/.  So again we are delighted to welcome

Greetings to all, great to have you on board.  Please feel free to introduce yourself to colleagues here and share any particular interests and activities related to NCUC, ICANN, etc.  I especially want to take note of the addition of Wikimedia Foundation, very happy you’re here.  With these additions, we now have 453 members from 105 countries, including 111 noncommercial organizations and 342 individuals.  

The ncsg-discuss list is for stakeholder group-wide discussions, mostly with respect to GNSO issues and processes, while this ncuc-discuss list is for the constituency only and focuses on our internal views and positions on these and other ICANN/Internet governance matters, as well as our intra-organizational development.  

Soon after Dublin, NCUC will begin its annual election cycle for a new chair and Executive Committee.

In addition to the NCSG pointers Rafik provided in his post, if you have the time and interest in getting a bit more background, you might want to poke around in

Again, many thanks for joining us and welcome aboard.

Best


Bill
