Dear SSC members, As many of you are likely already aware, during the 27 October 2021 GNSO Council meeting, councilors unanimously voted in support of the Consent Agenda item approving the appointment of Jeffrey Neuman as GNSO Council Liaison to the New Generic Top-Level Domain (gTLD) Subsequent Procedures Operational Design Phase. You can find the resolution posted here [gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/en/council/resolutions/202...>. Congratulations to all on a successful selection process, and again, a special thanks to those of you rolling off the SSC after the AGM!
