Re: [IFWP] Intellectual Property Constituency

Mikki and all,

  Thank you Mikki for providing this information.  And please include me
as the spokesman for INEGroup in this Constituency.  I do have a few
questions however...  Consider this reply as my interest in this area...

1.) Is there a membership yet for this constituency?
2.) Will this information be added to the NEW now ICANN run
     DNSO.ORG web site?
3.) Will there be a separate mailing list sometime in the future
     for this constituency?
4.) Are non-members able to participate on an equal footing in
     discussions on any possible mailing list for this constituency?
5.) Is this constituency now and "ICANN Approved" constituency?
