Alex – As others have said, you will definitely be missed. And many of us are, frankly, a little jealous of your having escaped. 😊 All the best, and hopefully our career paths will cross again. J. ------------- James Bladel GoDaddy From: Gnso-epdp-team <gnso-epdp-team-bounces@icann.org> on behalf of Alex Deacon <alex@colevalleyconsulting.com> Date: Wednesday, December 4, 2019 at 02:03 To: EPDP <gnso-epdp-team@icann.org> Subject: [Gnso-epdp-team] Moving on.... Notice: This email is from an external sender. Dear EPDP Colleagues, Just a quick email to notify you of my resignation from the EPDP effective immediately. The IPC has selected Franck Journoud (MPA VP of Technology Policy) to take my place as one of the IPC's two primary representatives on the EPDP team. Franck has been following the work of the EPDP discussions since August and we have been working hand-in-hand since then to ensure a smooth transition. To complete the transition I will be working behind the scenes with Franck until the end of the month. It has been a privilege to collaborate with all of you on this important policy and I wish you all much success in completing your deliberations and delivering the Phase 2 reports! Given the world is very small (and the ICANN circus is even smaller!) the odds are pretty good we will bump into each other again in the future. I very much look forward to that.
