Dear GNSO Council, Staff and Team, The sale of the Markmonitor business to Com Laude has officially closed as of a few moments ago. As a result of this, I shall need to step down from my role as RrSG Rep, effective immediately. I wanted to take a few moments to thank you all, it has genuinely been a joy to work alongside you and you have supported, encouraged, and handled all of my questions with great kindness and good nature. I wish Susan and the new leadership of Council all of the very best! Now that I am stepping down, I shall leave as a gift a wonderful position of liaison to one of the most efficient and effective PDPs to date (ok I might be biased here) the LD PDP- which I hope one of you shall kindly take the reins of and lead it to its successful completion. Although gone from Council I shall remain at ICANN meetings, where I hope to still see you all (however I'll miss our dinners)! Thank you again everyone, it really has been a pleasure. Wishing you all the warmest and happiest of New Years. I hope to see you in 2026. Best, Prudence Malinki Head of Industry Relations, Markmonitor Signal: PMalinki.92 T +44 207 433 4869 Time zone: GMT/BST [cid:image001.png@01DC7AA0.00164DD0]
