Thank you very much for this great year Heather! Thank as well to Donna and Rafik. As always you have been shy of remembering successes, like setting up the ePDP in no time and getting it to start during the northerly summer period. That was amazing! PDP 3.0 has also set the right framework for what the council is already facing in terms of adapting its procedures to the ever growing pressure of the wider multi-SO/AC composition of PDPs, being tested today in the ePDP and the WT5. Risks vs Opportunities for the GNSO Council as the (single?) policy making body? Certainly we look forward to a very challenging discussion end of January in Los Angeles on this developments and I hope you and Donna will be there with us and help us with your wisdom and experience. In terms of schedule, I agree with you that the rotation has been less than optimal. In my view, one of the best argument to keep the headquarters in a US Western State was to keep that balance. But somehow it doesn't count at the moment to set up calling hours, because very few people actually live there. Increasing volunteer fatigue is the only clear result so far. Congratulations for your great work. --- Carlos Raúl Gutiérrez carlosraul@gutierrez.se +506 8837 7176 Aparatado 1571-1000 COSTA RICA El 2018-10-20 14:19, Heather Forrest escribió:
