Dear staff, I'd like to ask for your help in reviving the RAA-WG list, which we have been meaning to do for a while now. Can we do it with a minimum of language, to get the thing restarted, and then provide logistical details and whatnot on the second or third mailing. We should send it to the old RAA-WG mailing list. I would suggest the subject line: Renewing Interest in a Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) working group Text: You're receiving this note because of an expression of interest, or because of previous membership in the Registrar Accreditation Agreement working group convened by the Generic Names Services Organization. Because of some important activity regarding the RAA, we would like to ask you to join a new group, this time convened by the at-large community. Membership is open to anyone, but the group's intent will be to determine and represent the interests of Internet users, not contracted parties. Discussion will be free and open and not limited or prescribed. If you're interested, send a reply to XXXXX.icann.org and we will send you information about what's going on with the RAA, when the meetings will be, and other things you will want to know. The first meeting will be by teleconference in late January, at a date and time to come, with the intent to develop an in-person discussion agenda for the forthcoming Costa Rica meeting. Thanks and Regards, Beau Brendler, working group chair Chair, NARALO
