thinking. Currently there seems to be a universal slump in such organisations - time is mostly no longer given it has to be paid for (so a special thank you to the few who continue to give). I continue to be optimistic that this is only a temporary phenomenon???<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<br>
<br>
It has recently been brought to our attention that the domain name <a href="http://igcaucus.org" target="_blank">
igcaucus.org</a> will expire at the Registry in 14 days, on 07 May 2023 (UTC). It will cost c. 20 EUR to renew.
<br>
<br>
We wanted to check with you, the IGC list, whether you see value in maintaining the domain name and if so, whether you would be interested in supporting its renewal. It can be paid for up to 9 years. If so, a benefactor or two (or three) could make themselves
known to us. Otherwise, we could set up a crowdfunder. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
