[council] RE: Invitation to the GNSO - GAC Community Session on Protection of Geographic Names

[Heather Forrest <Heather.Forrest@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Jonathan,

Thank you for your email below. I am pleased to see that the GNSO ultimately 
received an invitation to this "community session" which unquestionably 
involves matters of gTLD policy.

Jonathan, I would be very grateful if you were willing to reply thanking Olga 
for the invitation and confirming that we will convey the name of the GNSO 
representative very soon.

I will attend this session but do not wish to be put forward as representing 
the GNSO on the panel without input from Council colleagues. My concern about 
this panel has been procedural - that the GNSO be represented, not that I or 
any particular person be the representative.

Also involved in this issue is Carlos Gutierrez, who serves with me as GNSO 
co-chairs on the CWG Country and Territory Names; Carlos is the Council's 
liaison on that CWG.

Many thanks and best wishes in advance for any feedback received,

Heather

Heather,

I have received the below and attached invitation from Olga Cavelli.

I expect that this is of interest to you and would like confirmation that you 
will be able to attend.
In addition, are you able to do the five minute presentation requested or could 
you suggest someone who may be able to?

Thank-you.

Jonathan
