MODIFIED: Order of Events for Signing Ceremony
by Nick Ashton-Hart 29 Mar '07

29 Mar '07

Dear Colleagues: The revised version of the order of events for the signings today. Note the main features for signers: You are called up to sign - enter CENTER STAGE STAIRS and sit in the middle seat, sign BOTH COPIES, and shake hands with Paul Twomey and face the camera for a photo of the handshake. You then stand BEHIND THE TABLE while the rest of the regional representatives sign. Then a photo of the region will be taken with Paul The African region leaves the stage for the start of the European signing. NOTE: European reps should stay onstage at the end of your signing, so we can have a group picture with both RALOs, the ALAC, Paul, and the Board. -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart Director, At-Large ICANN PO Box 32160 London N4 2XY United Kingdom Main Tel: +44 (20) 8800-1011] USA Tel: +1 (202) 657-5460 Fax: +44 (20) 7681-3135 mobile: +44 (7774) 932798 email: nick.ashton-hart(a)icann.org Win IM: ashtonhart(a)hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart(a)mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart

3 RALOs Celebrated in Lisbon Today!
by Nick Ashton-Hart 29 Mar '07

29 Mar '07

At 1330 GMT, as the finale of the Public Forum at the Lisbon ICANN Meeting, there will be a signing ceremony for two RALOs - Africa and Europe - and a recognition of the conclusion of the Asia/Australia/ Pacific MoU. Those newly-elected in AP and Africa will also be announced. The event will be webcast and scribed, and recorded and made available for download/viewing as a separate event as well as part of the Public Forum. Please see http://public.icann.org for details on watching and listening. The Order of Events is attached for your information. My congratulations to these regions for their achievement - the high- point of a very productive and policy-debate rich meeting for At- Large which I think it is fair to say has given the entire community a great 'bounce' in terms of visibility and credibility with all other constituencies.

Travel Expenses Reimbursement / Changes to Flights
by Nick Ashton-Hart 28 Mar '07

28 Mar '07

Dear European and African colleagues: There have been a few questions about reimbursement and expenses. Be advised that we will provide full details of how to reclaim reimburseable expenses as soon as the Lisbon meeting is concluded. The forms used to request reimbursement have been updated and some additional changes to make them easier to use for At-Large community members have just been made to them, so don't use old forms if you have them... New forms will be posted on the regional wikis and notice emailed as soon as they are posted. HOTEL CHARGES ICANN is paying your hotel charges for the nights of the 23rd to the 28th inclusive, unless other arrangements have been made (which is the case for a number of you where it saved a great deal on flights for you to travel a day or two later). ICANN will also directly pay for meals charged to your room - outside of the nights when ICANN is providing dinner as a part of the conference. Any mini-bar, telephone, or other incidental expenses are payable by you unless specifically agreed otherwise in writing (by email for example). These are also not reimburseable after the meeting is over. DEPARTURE DATES If you made arrangements to leave before the 29th at noon and wish to be present for the signing ceremony please send an email to travel-staff(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org and nadine.d(a)travelstoreusa.com and request a later flight. We cannot guarantee that ICANN will be able to afford to pay for these extensions but we will carefully consider these requests in an expeditious fashion. Finally, I have attached the invitation provided to both European and African regions originally, which outlines the points above as well as others, -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart PO Box 32160 London N4 2XY United Kingdom UK Tel: +44 (20) 8800-1011 USA Tel: +1 (202) 657-5460 Fax: +44 (20) 7681-3135 mobile: +44 (7774) 932798 Win IM: ashtonhart(a)hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart(a)mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart

Re: [AFRI-Discuss] Signing Ceremony Order of Events
by Nick Ashton-Hart 28 Mar '07

Argh. Of course - thanks VERY much for reminding me of this. I didn't ignore it but did completely forget it! I do remember your proposal, Alice's shock, and willingness to serve and no objections to proceeding in this way. Please accept my humblest apologies everyone. And many thanks Pierre for reminding me! I will amend the text and exchange Didier for Alice in the process. Note that my putting in Jacqueline was simply because we have three RALOs to get through, instead of one like in Sao Paulo, so it seemed sensible to try to help tie the three parts of the process with one person who was on ALAC but not part of one of the three regions, for equality of treatment, and the Chair seemed the natural choice - especially since she comes from the region where the first RALO was created. I hope this makes sense and is also generally acceptable. On 28/03/07, Pierre Dandjinou <dandjinou.pierre(a)undp.org> wrote: > Nick, > > Thanks for this.
