Hello NPOC members, I would like to thank you all, and once again Raymond I appreciate your decision to nominate me. After some considerations, I would like to withdraw my acceptance for the Policy Committee Chair and throw my weight behind Gloria Menses. It is an undeniable fact that we are all here to support the good works that are ongoing at NPOC . I look forward to working with all the successful candidates and wish you all the best of luck. Thank you On Wed, May 26, 2021 at 8:22 PM Maryam Bakoshi via Npoc-discuss < npoc-discuss@icann.org> wrote:
