Dear fellow councilors,

 

The ccNSO’s membership seems to be one of most sought after these days…

 

We have received an application for membership of the ccNSO by .sx, the ccTLD of the newly autonomous Sint Maarten.

The application has been filed by Jean-Christophe Vignes, representing the cc's manager SX Registry SA b.v.

Please see IANA's " all clear" below. If you have any objections to .sx's membership, please let me know before Friday 11 May.

 

Cheers,

 

Roelof Meijer
