I would like to acknowledge all the work done by Giovanni to help ALAC, and in particular EURALO, in overcoming difficult moments. Some of the newer folks might not be aware of what a great help he has been, going often much beyond his bare professional duties, and really sharing with us the willingness to bring this bird off the ground.
See you in Puerto Rico?
Ciao, Roberto

Patrick, All,
I was going to send a message to this list during these days to say ciao to all of you. It is a "ciao", not a good bye as I am sure I will keep seeing you during ICANN meetings and other Internet related events.
The decision was not easy and I thought I could not miss the opportunity I was presented.
I believe that, once all the "bureaucratic" aspects are sorted out, At Large will represent a fundamental component of the ICANN process, a component which should bring the interests, needs and expectations of the end users to ICANN'attention. It is not an easy task, but during my time at ICANN and my time with the representatives of the European At Large organisation I have seen that there are very valuable and motivated people that will accomplish it. Do not give up!
I hope I have been helpful as much as I could and I look forward to seeing you all in the future,
Best,
Giovanni

[Since many of you here know Giovanni, I thought this would be of interest to you -Patrick] http://www.eurid.eu/content/view/202/33/lang,en/
Giovanni will take on the role of International Relations Manager of EURid as from May 14, 2007. The position has been newly created and includes being responsible for EURid's relations with relevant International organizations, such as ICANN (the International body overseeing all top level domains) and CENTR (Council of European National Top Level Domain Registries) as well as other international bodies. Furthermore, he will represent EURid in international fora. In this role he will report to the general manager.
"International relations play an important role for any top level domain, and especially for .eu which is transnational in its nature. Therefore, I am very satisfied that we managed to get Giovanni onboard. I am sure that with his long experience and extensive network he will contribute in a significant way to EURid's further development in this field," commented Marc Van Wesemael, EURid's General Manager.
Giovanni previously worked at ICANN as European Regional Liaison. Prior to that he was the General Manager at CENTR. He has also served as Head of External Relations of the Italian Registry (ITT CNR) and has three years of experience at the European Commission in various roles.
