<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Everyone
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>ISOC-AU did make a submission when this issue was raised last year. I
can't find what we said on our website, but that will be rectified soon.
What we said at the time was very much in line with what the ICANN CEO
said, so check our website in the next day or so. We'd
be happy to work with others on a joint position, but a good
starting point is the statement made by Lynn in Mexico on ICANN.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>And maybe this is the time to use the Sphere processes to reach an ISOC
position?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>Kind regards</DIV>
