Big smile, Omar and All!  I am so pleased to hear the verdict of the Registries Stakeholder Group, and have great thanks and appreciation to everyone on the Whois Review Team who value my work (as I value yours!).

The downside of the whole process with the Registries is the time it took to come to a conclusion, and the appearance, along the way, that someone else would be appointed. That meant that I could not, in good faith, book tickets to Singapore through the ICANN travel service at the appropriate time.

So with regrets, there is bad news and good news. The bad news is that I will be unable to join you in Singapore -- and am very sorry because I know there will be many, many important meeting. I will read official notes closely, and please feel free to take and share unofficial notes as well (especially in areas we are working on together).

The good news is that I get to continue, hooray!  We have much work ahead, and I look forward to doing it with it. At the end of the day, we are a team, and that is a great thing.

Very best,
Kathy


Glad to hear that!

Long live to the valuable women! :)

Dear Keith

Thank you for your message.  On behalf of the Review Team, I am delighted to hear that Kathy will be continuing in her role as Vice Chair.  As you say, she is an excellent resource, and a valued colleague within the Team.

Look forward to our meetings with the RySG at ICANN Singapore.
