Dear Members The ccNSO Policy Development Process on Retirement of ccTLDs has reached an important and critical point: - *We as the ccNSO community have to decide whether we accept the proposed policy.* Therefore, *I urge you to vote*, whether you support the proposals or not, but vote. To understand the issues at stake and the proposed retirement policy I refer you to the ccNSO Members Report, which was published on 24 June (see https://ccnso.icann.org/en/workinggroups/pdp3-retirement-members-report-24ju...) . - *Next week the voting will start on Wednesday 7 July 2021*, at 00.01 UTC and it will close on 28 July 2021 at 23.59 UTC. - *The primary contact from your ccTLD Manager will receive an email ballot from tally@icann.org <tally@icann.org>* - If you have not received the email ballot on 7 July 2021, please contact Joke (Joke.Braeken@icann.org). For more information on the voting process please have a look at the June edition of the ccNSO newsletter ( https://myemail.constantcontact.com/ccNSO-Newsletter---June-2021.html?soid=1... ) Best Regards, Alejandra Reynoso Chair of the ccNSO -- [image: Photograph] *Alejandra Reynoso*Investigación & Desarrollo | Dominios .gt *P:* +502 23688565 *E:* alejandra.reynoso@cctld.gt 18 Ave. 11-95 Zona 15, V.H.
