 I would endorse James for this role. His broad background in application
development based on DNS, such as hosting and email would bring a
much-needed holistic perspective to this effort.

Hi Bhavin,

I would love to volunteer for this spot. I've been involved with IDN's from
both a technical  & policy standpoint since the initial testbed in 2000.
Since that time I have watched the space move forward at a steady pace with
much interest. I am myself multilingual  and feel that I would represent the
RC well on this committee given my technical, policy and social
understanding of the IDN namespace.

Cheers,

James
