Thank you for the encouraging words Philip, I am
now more interested than ever in ensuring that the
"bottom up" mandate of the ICANN is adhered to,
and effectively represented in all forums, levels,
and organizations that relate to its structure and
function.

Just a couple points of clarification, if you
don't mind, Philip.  

Of course, you don't mean to say that the
formation of the "interim group" to which you
refer above, precludes the WG-Review from
submitting its own proposal(s) as per Resolutions
01.28 & 01.29 of the BoD?  

Also, would you mind naming the members of the
interim group, and directing those interested to
their work in progress?  I, for one, would like to
be party to such a discussion, and I'm sure many
of the other Members of the WGr would also
appreciate such an opportunity.

Thank you for confirming the deadline date.  This
certainly underlines the urgency in getting the
WGr's proposal(s) to the BoD on time.

One more clarification: Does the last sentence
mean that those "individuals who are keen to do
more" will not have the opportunity "to contribute
to issues relevant to the NC as its exists today
and a longer term restructuring"?  Forgive me for
asking, but I would like to make sure nobody
misunderstands this final point, as it appears
somewhat ambivalent.

Sincerely,

Sotiris Sotiropoulos
