Dear Councillors, Please, see Ron's note below on an adding an ALAC seat to the ICANN board.

The ALAC Executive Council is pleased with this decision, but are unsure whether this is the definitive Board reaction to the ALAC review WG and SIC recommendation (of two voting members), or a possible first step with the Board reserving the right to expand to two ALAC members at some future date. Thanks, Gabbi Ron Sherwood ccNSO/ALAC liaison ------ End of Forwarded Message
