Dear colleagues, It is with great sorrow, we regret to inform you of the passing of our colleague Muriel Alapini. The burial has already taken place in the privacy of the family. Initiatives are currently underway within the community to honour her memory, and you will be informed in due course. Muriel was a committed and respected member of the Internet governance community, and her contributions will continue to be remembered. There are two pages in memory of Muriel.
