[Chapter-delegates] Internet Society Appointments to the NTIA/IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group

[Cheryl Langdon-Orr]

Congratulations to Narelle and Demi on their appointment to this pivotal
group, please know that like no doubt most of us here, I stand ready to
assist your work in any way I can... Your time frame on this is so short
but with a good team behind you (and you will  have that I am sure), it
should be achievable...
