[Ec-ncuc] NCUC letter to the GAC, RE UDRP

Mon Sep 26 16:58:20 CEST 2011

Hi KK,

Thanks for drafting and editing this down.  I would also suggest we use the
cover letter as an opportunity to bullet point our arguments from the
comments we submitted earlier.  Odds are those comments were never read by
GAC members.  We might as well hit them over the head with them now
(politely, of course).  Think this is a good idea?

I'll make some edits to letter to reflect this if we're in agreement. Let me
know.

Best,
