any link outside the member hub to a list of what the UKRAC has done up until now or is that the only access?

 

[webber]

I think the Members' Hub and the Community (one account gives you access to both) is the only place to get updates about this.

If anyone is interested in helping shape Nominet policy see https://members.nominet.uk/ukrac-elections-2022/ for info on how to submit your candidacy

"We did not receive any nominations from the large segment by the deadline. We will review the options with the UKRAC and Board to determine a suitable way forward" - not great.
