Details of the session can be found below @ at the following URL: https://st.icann.org/naralo/index.cgi?planning_next_steps_for_na_ralo it would be good to prioritize the list, and start moving forward. Thus, please comment on the wiki or via email .. regards Robert -- All the NARALO community is welcome to add suggestions to the list. We will first compile them and then prioritize them.
