I am most pleased to let you know that UZINFOCOM, the manager of .UZ ccTLD of Uzbekistan, is ready to deliver a presentation on its work to expand the ccTLD. To this end, I am happy to (re-) introduce mr. Askhat Gimranov, the head of the Domains Department. Both Askhat and I are perfectly aware that .UZ is not a ccNSO member yet; however, they seem to be interested in exploring an opportunity for joining the community and if approved, the presentation may form a great stepping stone for that. Please feel free to contact askhat, should the Council and secretariat elect to continue such an engagement. Yours truly, L.
