Hi All,

Please see the minutes of last night’s GNSO Council meeting where the council agreed to appoint Norm Richie to replace Emily post her resignation last month.

I’m sure Norm will introduce himself once he has been added to the list. We will need to make sure we work as a group to help Norm get up to speed on our progress to date.
