<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Dear Liz and Mwendwa,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>ICANN's At-Large Advisory
Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that has been
certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS). The ALAC
greatly appreciates your group's interest in involving
individual users in Kenyan ICT Action Network and ICANN
and looks forward to working with you and your
colleagues.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>The ALAC is eager to promote a
productive working relationship between your
organization, other ALSes, and the ALAC (and ICANN in
general), and your input on how we can make this a
success would be greatly appreciated.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Itıs very important to keep the
members of your organization informed (about significant
