Hello everyone, I'm resending the request to (1) circulate the renewed call for volunteers to your respective groups (http://www.icann.org/en/resources/policy/update/update-jan14-en.htm#9); and (2) update each of your group's representatives in the new DT. As just requested by Jonathan, here is the latest list of volunteers, reflecting the "old" member list but with the addition of Becky Burr (ccNSO; DT co-chair) and three new ALAC volunteers who responded to our most recent call for participation Cheryl Langdon Orr, Evan Leibovitch and Alberto Soto.

Dear Councilors,
You will recall that the Council approved the formation of a new Cross-Community Working Group (CWG) Drafting Team (DT) at the October 2013 Council meeting, following which Jonathan reached out to the other SO/AC Chairs to invite participation from their communities in the new DT. As John has indicated in his note about the upcoming ccNSO Council meeting, the topic will be on the agenda for their January meeting. The ALAC has responded with the names of three volunteers, who staff has added to the mailing list. The new DT will likely convene for its first meeting at the end of this month or in early February.
As such, it would be helpful if you could inform your respective groups about the DT and solicit volunteers for it. In addition, and given that the new DT will be working from initial documents prepared by the original GNSO CWGDT in 2012, it would be greatly appreciated if you or your groups can confirm if the DT members listed on the group's wiki will continue to participate in the new DT: https://community.icann.org/x/qAfPAQ <https://community.icann.org/x/qAfPAQ> (note that while staff has updated the list to reflect the fact that some original DT members are no longer Council or active GNSO members, we have not deleted any other names, and a few on the list have since taken on new positions or work within the GNSO).
For your convenience, the new call for participation was included in the latest issue of the ICANN Policy Update for January 2014: http://www.icann.org/en/resources/policy/update/update-jan14-en.htm#9. Please feel free to circulate the link!
Thanks and cheers Mary
