Dear Wendy:

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

After consultations internally, we can confirm that there is no procedural
or Bylaw-related impediment to proceeding as you suggest. However, it will
be necessary for you to inform the GNSO Council of your situation and that,
in particular, you will not be participating in any vote the Council takes
until you take your seat after the close of the Seoul meeting.

We've been asked to suggest to you that you also inform the NCUC of the
situation if you have not already done so, though we are not aware of an
obligation for you to do so.
