Dear ALL:

The LACRALO Secretariat wishes to record our sympathies to Annette and our hope for a speedy recovery.  All LACRALO members that attended the Sao Paulo ICANN meeting would record Annette’s sterling contributions to the birth of LACRALO.  And so we are certain that they would associate with the sentiments expressed here.

 

Kind regards,

Carlton

Dear All:

 

I have the unfortunate duty to forward the news below - which some of you may have already seen - from the Chair of the At-Large Advisory Committee.

 

May I say personally - and I'm sure on behalf of all the ICANN Staff too - that we wish you a speedy recovery Annette - and I'm sure you'll be back in your usual form soon :)

Dear ALAC fellows,

 

For weeks and weeks I have been hoping to recover, but my lungs are

still causing trouble. It now became clear that I will not be able to

take part in the Lisbon meeting.

 

In view of the uncertainty about how long I will not not be able to

function fully as ALAC Chair, I have come to the conclusion that I

should ask you to elect someone else from our team to carry the

responsibilities of ALAC Chair. This has been a very difficult decision

for me as I was earnestly trying to discharge the responsibilities you

have entrusted me with.

 

Meanwhile, I'm slowly recovering and hope to be back at my regular job

with the new responsibilities that have been kindly assigned to me as

soon as possible. Needless to say, I also look forward to being back on

the ALAC team and wish you all and ALAC the very best.

 

Once again, I would like to thank you all for your trust, support,

cooperation and understanding.

 

Annette
