Dear fellow councilors, As mentioned in yesterday's conference call, we have received an application for membership of the ccNSO from .pf, the ccTLD of French Polynesia (la Polynésie Française). The application was submitted by Tamatoa Pomare POMMIER of the Agence de Réglementation du Numérique, representing the Gouvernement de la Polynésie Française, the ccTLD's sponsoring organization. See the application attached and IANA's "all clear" below. If you have any objections to .pf's membership, could you please let me know before Saturday 25 February?
