Great read,,

I only proposed miniscure changes inside [ ] below. To add a touch of
"governmental praise lingo" intro before jumping into the substance.
Attached, but not sure you all can read my LibreOffice.org - modified
version?

Regards,

Alex

Heather Dryden,
[Chair, ] Governmental Advisory Committee (GAC)	

Dear Heather,

The Non-Commercial Users Constituency (NCUC) would like to take the
opportunity to  [acknowledge and thank GAC for their continued and
deepened contribution to policy making. NCUC would also like to]
express its views in relation to the Uniform Domain Name Dispute
Resolution Policy (UDRP). NCUC understands that the GAC has sent a
letter to the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO), raising
some concerns as to whether a Policy Development Process (PDP) should
be initiated in relation to a review of the UDRP.
