Bart has been temporarily removed from the mailing lists for this message, and will be re-added shortly. Please do not reply to the mailing lists. ** As many of you may know, Bart has announced that he will retire in October this year, making the Seville meeting his last ICANN meeting. To celebrate his many contributions, we are planning a few surprise activities during the meeting, and we would love your help in making this a memorable moment for him. How You Can Contribute Share Photos | If you have photos with Bart, please send them to: bart-tribute@icann.org<mailto:bart-tribute@icann.org> by Friday 22 May. These will be used to create a special tribute compilation, which we aim to display at ICANN86, on Wednesday afternoon (10 June) in the ccNSO room. Bring Coffee Beans | Bart is a true coffee lover, and we are putting together a global collection of coffee beans as a gift from the community. If you will be attending the Seville meeting, please consider bringing a small bag of coffee beans from your country (preferably whole beans, so they stay fresh longer). Katrina Sataki and I will collect the coffee on Monday and Tuesday and present it to Bart on behalf of the community on Tuesday. Join us in the ccNSO room | On Tuesday, 9 June 2026 | 17:30-18:00 local (UTC +2), Chris Disspain and Alejandra Reynoso will have a fireside chat with Bart to reflect on his ccNSO-journey, celebrating key milestones, exploring lessons learned along the way, and hearing his thoughts as he prepares for retirement. On Wednesday afternoon, we will display the tribute compilation of pictures as another surprise for Bart. Questions? Please contact: bart-tribute@icann.org<mailto:bart-tribute@icann.org> IMPORTANT Please do not share with Bart or reply to the mailing lists about these plans, we would like to keep it a surprise. Thank you for helping us celebrate Bart in a truly special way. Best regards, Alejandra, Claudia & Joke ******************************************* Work like you don't need the money.
