Thanks Maggie. With my Secretariat hat off, on behalf of BT I want to support this paper going forward and also join in thanking all who worked on the text. I want to add a special thanks to Wolf-Ulrich who I believe made the initial draft a reality and contributed so much to the ongoing discussion. mark From: maggie.mansourkia@verizon.com [mailto:maggie.mansourkia@verizon.com] Sent: Friday, March 14, 2008 2:31 PM To: mcfadden@ispcp.info; ispcp@icann.org; Wolf-Ulrich.Knoben@t-online.de Subject: RE: [ispcp] Joint ISPCP/BC/IPC Statement to the Board of Directors on Reform Thanks Mark.

The intent of this document is to seek a 30-day extension to the comment period which will enable further development of an alternative approach that the joint constituencies can all support. It is strongly recommended that the ISPCP support this document. The plan is to submit this to the Board on March 19th. Failure to respond to this message will be taken as agreement to support this action. Mark McFadden Secretariat, ISPCP Constituency mcfadden@ispcp.info
