Hello everyone. My name is Caroline Chicoine and I am Of Counsel at Fredrikson & Byron, P.A. based in St. Louis, Missouri and have been practicing in the ip area for over 20 years. After taking a backseat after many years in the domain name and ICANN world, when I saw that this working group was being formed, I thought it was a perfect way to get back into the thick of things with an issue that is near and dear to me. I entered the ICANN world in 1999 as a young lawyer right out of law school, helping to draft the IPC bylaws and got hooked. I was Chair of INTA’s Registration and Domain Name System Administration subcommittee, Vice Chair of the Internet committee as a whole, and then Chair of the entire Internet committee in 2010 and 2011. I served for several years on ICANN’s Names Council on behalf of the IPC, and chaired ICANN’s Implementation Recommendation Team. I look forward to working with you all. Cordially, Caroline G.
