all,<br>
<br>
As we get ready for, or are on the way to the ICANN meeting in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Mexico City</st1:place></st1:City>, I have a few questions:<br>
<br>
1. Are we going to have an Africa-constituency meeting, as we did in <st1:City
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Cairo</st1:place></st1:City>, and if so, when
and where?<br>
2. Did the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Cairo</st1:place></st1:City>
meeting of the Africa-constituency result in any action item or items, i.e.
things we are supposed to do? If so, what was to be done, and who was to
do it by when? Or was the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Cairo</st1:place></st1:City>
meeting just a getting-to-know-you kind of meeting, with no follow-up actions
to be taken?<br>
<br>
I ask these because I was not at the conclusion of the <st1:City w:st="on">Cairo</st1:City>
Africa-constituency meeting, and because I still haven't heard anything about
us getting together in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mexico City</st1:place></st1:City>.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for your replies, and best wishes for a safe and pleasant
trip to all of you heading to <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Mexico
City</st1:place></st1:City>!<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
Katim<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
