comment to others, but unless there is strong disagreement I can’t see
why this can’t be a statement from the Caucus as a whole, rather than
just members who sign on. That would change some of the wording at the top to
simply “The Internet Governance Caucus wishes to express our
support” (with perhaps a phrase on who the Caucus is)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

listed below are members of and participants in the civil society Internet
Governance Caucus. We wish to express our support for version 6.0 of the
Noncommercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG) charter developed by the Noncommercial
Users Constituency. While there may still be room for minor improvements, we
believe that the basic principles on which the charter is founded provide the
fairest and most effective basis for civil society representation in
ICANN’s Generic Names Supporting Organization. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal dir=LTR><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-US
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> * It permits individual
membership in the NCSG and does not require individuals to fit themselves into

<p class=MsoNormal dir=LTR><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-US
