Dear all, As of today we still have 20 people on the waiting list. If you are not able to attend this evenings ccNSO dinner we would be very grateful and those on the waiting list even more if you could inform Gabi as soon as you know, so someone else can attend! Kind regards, Bart On 3/8/11 5:15 PM, "Bart Boswinkel" <bart.boswinkel@icann.org> wrote: Dear all, As you may have noted yesterday, Tuesday, 8 March, registration for the ccNSO dinner ( Tuesday 15 March 2011) has closed. Unfortunately not all requests good be honoured due to the interest from everybody and the limited space available ( only 130 seats). Those of you who could not get a ticket are put on a waiting list. As Gabi indicated in her email seats at the dinner were granted on a first-come-first-served basis. Experience has shown that not all who you who have received a ticket turn-up at the ccNSO dinner and “forget” to inform Gabi, Kristina or me. As a result other ccTLD representatives/colleagues who were on the waiting list could not attend the dinner although there would have been seats available. At the same time - as all seats were not taken - the sponsors had to cover the full bill for all seats. For the event in San Francisco it means that the sponsors need to cover over USD 250,- per person not showing up! We therefore urge those of you who have a ticket and cannot make it to the dinner to inform Gabi as soon as you know, so someone else can attend! Kind regards, Bart
