You did a great job keeping the community together. It seems like I missed my chance to nominate you. Which I totally understand and can’t burden you with the work load and such tired and unenthusiastic crowd that we are. We did very well under your leadership. You kept us together. I hope we become more active (I am at fault as well, not blaming others, unfortunately I can’t be as active at ICANN due to other professional engagements). So Middle East, are we going to be more active? What is the plan?

Unfortunately, there was no nominations, no interest, even to nominate the current co-chairs for a second term. Hence, we put back the Space in the hands of MEAC-SWG for their consideration as we can’t continue with our role beyond our term that comes to end on 31 December 2020. We hope that next year brings the community back to track.
