<P><FONT size=2><SPAN class=356490808-03052007>I would like to thanky Andres for
his help about my nomination. I confirm it and I send again my
presentation.</SPAN></FONT></P>

<P><FONT size=2> Paco de Quinto candidature for EURID's Board</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>_____________________________________________</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>I am a lawyer and a economist, and since 1999 my speciality
is<SPAN class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>legal consultancy on new
technologies.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>My contact with ICANN goes back to 2001. I have been member of
ISOC-CAT's Board during 2004-2005, period in which I directly<SPAN
class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>assisted with the legal incorporation of
ISOC-ECC in Barcelona. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>Later on, I kept collaborating with the subsequent ISOC-CAT
</FONT><FONT size=2>boards on legal and accounting issues.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>I am a selected arbitrator of the DotCAT Foundation to solve
</FONT><FONT size=2>conflicts in the adjudication of ".cat" domain
names.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>Professionally, I have had the chance to successfully take part
in several domain names recovery proceedings within the framework<SPAN
class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>of the ICANN Unified Conflicts Solutions
Policy.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>I am preparing a PhD thesis in new technology law about "digital
identity management" in the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya<SPAN
class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>(UPC), and I am actually participating in
several 7th framework European research programs.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2>I think my legal and accounting experience could be very
useful<SPAN class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>to consolidate the "birth" of
EURALO, assisting with the drafting </FONT><FONT size=2>of legal agreements, the
establishment of voting procedures, and,<SPAN class=356490808-03052007>
</SPAN>if this is finally the case, with the legal incorporation of the<SPAN
class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>entity. Moreover, my knowledge on the legal
aspects of the domain<SPAN class=356490808-03052007> </SPAN>name system could be
very useful for EURALO in its given task of </FONT><FONT size=2>protecting and
defending the rights of the European Internet users. </FONT></P></DIV>
