[Chapter-delegates] Steve Crocker's leaving the ICANN Board

[Patrik Fältström]

Indeed!

Taking over as chair of SSAC after Steve now almost 7 years ago was not an easy task, I thought, but in fact it was. Steve being such a remarkable person he not only initiated many of the organisations we today take for granted, he also developed them into something that really could live on its own. And I knew this after working with Steve in IETF and ISOC for many years, so to some degree I was not surprised either. :-)

Steve is just a great person!

Respect!
