Councillors,

I have been invited by the ICC to speak at an event they are organizing at the 
end of September in Paris.

It has been brought to my attention that I am listed on the event program as 
GNSO Council Chair (in addition to my position as part of the company I work 
for).

To avoid any misunderstandings, and even though it goes without saying, I 
wanted to let you know that I have no intention of speaking on behalf of the 
Council at this event.

Obviously, even when I speak in my own capacity, I remain the current Chair of 
the Council and people may list me as such. In this instance, I actually see 
additional value in this as the session I am involved in, alongside Kurt, is 
meant to give a very high-level explanation of the new gTLD program and the way 
it has come about. I am told the attendees will have very limited knowledge of 
ICANN, and probably none of the GNSO, so it is a good opportunity to do some 
outreach in that regard.

Nonetheless, I wanted to make sure you were aware of this event, to ensure full 
transparency.

Thanks,

Stéphane
