[NCUC-EC] Fwd: Event for NGOs at next ICANN meeting

[William Drake]

Hi folks

You need to replace me as the PIR rep.  In the meanwhile I could reply saying that NCUC also does such events at every meeting, if it is your intent to do so in Marrakech.  Or anything else...I don’t know how you want to handle this fun stuff.

Guidance?

Bill
