Hello all,<br>
<br>
I would like to emphasize the importance of the EURALO Board and
encourage members from throughout Europe to seriously consider
applying.<br>
With already a few nominations for candidates from Western Europe,
the EURALO leadership would really benefit from having a
geographical and gender balance of members. Thus I hope that members
from Eastern Europe will seriously consider applying too. <br>
With the General Data Protection Regulations coming in force in
2018, and several debates about Privacy taking place at ICANN,
including Registration Data Services, the involvement and input from
our region is of prime importance.<br>
<br>
If you are considering taking on responsibilities at EURALO but
aren't completely sure about it, including having concerns about the
workload that this translates to, don't hesitate to email me in
private.<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<br>
