> Congratulations to Vanda and Sylvia both of whom we know bring years of

> We need to start building a farm team.  And as we collectively continue to
> look forward, I urge all of us to think deeply about how we build the
> capacity in LACRALO for our global interactions, for others to come forward
> and represent.  You only need to refer the conversations happening at the
> IANA Coordination Transition WG to see the risks.
>
> I am absolutely sure we need broader and deeper engagements.  From a
> Caribbean perspective, we have struggled to bring in more voices; the
> fellowship recommendations, the attempts to build ALS are just 2 means. But
> we labour against certain realities. And we know what we do is hard work.
> So while we remain hopeful, we are concerned about the numbers stepping
> forward - and the circumstances - for representation.
>
> Some of us are tiring.
>
> Here and now, we must begin to consciously address the diversity question
> and the ways we have to make it real. For no disrespect to the hard work of
> all volunteers, we are required not only to act but also look to outsiders
> that LACRALO is indeed representative.

> Kind regards,
