And likely never will. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren at vortex.com): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Google Issues Mailing List: https://vortex.com/google-issues Founder: Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 --- Impeach Trump --- _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list https://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad From staff at atlarge.icann.org Fri Dec 22 15:59:28 2017 From: staff at atlarge.icann.org (ICANN At-Large Staff) Date: Fri, 22 Dec 2017 15:59:28 +0000 Subject: [IDN-WG] Confirmation of At-Large Working Group Membership Message-ID: <081E6F18-AAA0-48BA-89DA-19A031BA5E55@atlarge.icann.org> Dear All, As per direction from the ALAC, all At-Large working group members are asked whether they wish to continue their participation in 2018 in the working groups that they are members of.
