Many thanks Nadira,

I desire to bridge the gap gap between UASG and TF-AIDN, for more acceptability of Arabic script, so please include me in the drafting team.

Dear All,

Although there is still enough time to finalized the drafting team, we could see an amazing 6 core volunteer members are emerging. We would like to thank everyone who volunteered so far -they are coppied in this email- but we still wait for others to be among the drafting team.

Upon the discussion between us, we found an advantage of creating another list of observers to empower community members to observe the core drafting team during their development of the ME statement. However, we didn't decide the observers' rule yet and kept it to be discussed with the drafting team.

Taking this proposal to encouraging MEAC community members to reply to this email stating that they would like to be an observers in this process.

Wishing you all a good day,

MEAC Space Leading Team

Tijani and Nadira

[Zied BOUZIRI]

As a member of the TF AIDNs,  please include me in the drafting team.

[Nadira Alaraj]

Thank you Zied for volunteering to be on the drafting team.

I'm sure the experience this time will be different because you will address most of the MEAC concerns in a written statement to be addressed to the decision makers in ICANN. Hoping they will give this issue a priority.

Best wishes 

Nadira 

[Hadia El Miniawi]

Dear Nadira and all,

Thank you for all the effort and organization. UA is indeed a good choice, I would like to volunteer for the drafting of the statement.

Kindest Regards

[Walid AL-SAQAF]

Dear Nadira and all,

Let me join in thanking you for this remarkable effort and getting so far in establishing the ME Space. I apologise for not being able to contribute anything due to my other professional commitments.

I wish to say that it's indeed truly inspiring to see that the MEAC-SWG has been the avenue that allowed pioneers such as Tijani and yourself along with the support of many active members.

Keep up the good work!

Sincerely,

Walid
