Hi, I added a short paragraph at to the the part on Multilingualism. ICANN should continute to improve its translation and interpretation policy for more effective participation from this extremely lingualistically-diversified region. Although written translation of ICANN policy douments is very important for outreaching to the community, live interpretation is more useful for non-English people to input to the policy comfortably and confidently in their own languages. We hope ICANN could seriously consider, in addition to French and Spanish, providing interpretation services for a variety of widely spoken languages at f-2-f meetings or conference calls.

Dear all,

We have had minimal contribution to the ICANN strategy document. I have attached a view from APRALO which will require your edit and support by the end of the meeting today.

I trust that it covers the major issues and concerns.

Regards Karaitiana Taiuru
