All,

 Sorry for the fire drill, but comments are due on the issue of filling  ICANN  Board Seat 13  by  Feb. 18 (tomorrow!).  Because we did not have enough time  to follow  our usual 14 day process to circulate comments for full BC sign on, we're trying a modified approach.   I've attempted a very short one pager with comments for those from the BC who wish to add their names individually .  If you can sign on individually, could you let me know?

Note that the IPC and ISPs are filing something similar and it will be important to make sure that our Non-Contracted House isn't restricted when it comes time next year for our group to select Board Seat 14.

Thanks,

Sarah
