Dear fellow councilors,

 

Yet again, we have received an application for membership of the ccNSO.

This time by .cw, the new ccTLD of Curaçao (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.cw).


The application has been filed by Leendert Pengel, representing the cc's manager, the University of the Netherlands Antilles.

Please see IANA's " all clear" below. If you have any objections to .cw's membership, please let me know before Wednesday 1 June.


Please note that finalization of this application has been delayed by the fact that we simultaneously received a membership application for.an, the to-be-phased-out cc of the Netherlands Antilles. This application was withdrawn by the University.


Best regards,
 
 
Roelof A. Meijer
CEO
