    Dear EURALO members,<br>
    <br>
    last week the RALO Secretariats call received news that ICANN was
    launching a new Pilot Program to help ICANN communities in drafting
    documents. We received a short survey asking how our community might
    be interested in using this resource.<br>
    <br>
    Please find a copy of the questionnaire attached to this message,
    with my responses based on the results of the EURALO survey. The
    first page looks at the general interests of our RALO. The second
    page looks at the forthcoming Public Consultations that we might be
    interested in responding to. I have one question: would we be
    interested in EURALO in responding to the consultation on
    Internationalized Domain Names (IDN) Variant Top Level Domain (TLD)
    implementations? I would appreciate a response from people involved
    in IDNs.<br>
    <br>
    We need to submit the response by Friday 26 February close of
    business day - apologies for the short response time, it is entirely
    my fault and I'll try to give you more time for review next time.<br>
    Thanks,<br>
    <br>
    Olivier<br>
