Dear Colleagues,
Let us exercise sobriety while raising our concerns and avoid casting aspersions regarding positions taken by others that may not be in line with our positions. In any democracy the majority will always have their way and the minority their say. The Rules of Procedure working group has been meeting for a long time and it has been reporting its progress during the monthly meetings. Before the GA, participation of members during the monthly meetings has been appalling to say the least even though most members are aware of the monthly meeting. We cannot blame the Chairman or Secretariat for the same. Those who have made time for the meetings have often debated on the issues and agreed on compromises i believe we should maintain the same spirit and respect each others positions. Let us separate issues from personalities and address them based on merit.
Thank you
Best Regards

Dear Members,
As per the information shared during our monthly call, It is been brought to our attention by the ALAC Chair that as per the first ALAC review requirements and the current At-Large Review (on-going) recommendations, the RALOs are tasked with ensuring individual membership. Therefore we need to get this particular item completed with.
As you may recall during the General Assembly in Johannesburg, this particular recommendation of the working group gained traction but we could not formerly record it due to other recommendations and time constraints. In view of this, I suggest we separate this recommendation on individual membership which already gained traction and pass that now to comply with At-Large reviews requirements.
For reference, below is the link to the latest version of the "Individual Membership » recommendation distributed in Johannesburg:
https://community.icann.org/display/AFRALO/Individual+ Membership+-+AFRALO+ROP+Review
Item 7 of the recommendation currently reads as follows: The individual membership issue will be reviewed in 2019 to reconsider their rights and duties of unaffiliated members in light of the 2018 experience. I propose to modify it in this way: "The individual membership issue will be reviewed by or before 2 years after implementation to reconsider the rights and duties of unaffiliated members in light of experience gained during initial trial"
I hereby, as AFRALO Chair, call for any objection to approving the conditions under which individual membership will be implemented as presented in the above recommendation.
Kindly provide your response within 72hrs
Best regards Aziz HILALI AFRALO Chair ---------------------------

Chers membres,
D'après les informations partagées lors de notre téléconférence mensuelle, le président de l’ALAC a attiré notre attention sur le fait que les RALO sont appelés à accepter les adhésions individuelles, et ce suivant les exigences de la première revue de l’ALAC et les recommandations de la revue actuelle d’At-Large, Par conséquent, nous devons finir ce point particulier sans plus tarder.
Comme vous le savez, lors de l’assemblée Générale à Johannesburg, cette recommandation du groupe de travail a été approuvée, mais nous n’avions pas pu l’officialiser à cause du fait que toutes les recommandations étaient dans un même document et que le temps ne nous a pas permis de les finir toutes. Pour cela, je suggère que nous séparons cette recommandation sur l’adhésion individuelle pour se conformer avec les exigence des revues d’At-Large.
Pour référence, voici le lien de la toute dernière version distribuée à Johannesburg de la recommandation relative à l’adhésion individuelle:
https://community.icann.org/display/AFRALO/Individual+ Membership+-+AFRALO+ROP+Review
Le point 7 de la recommandation dit: La question des droits et devoirs des membres individuels sera réexaminée en 2019 au vue de l’expérience de 2018. Je propose de le modifier pour devenir: «La question des droits et devoirs des membres individuels sera réexaminée 2 ans après la mise en oeuvre (ou avant) au vue de l’expérience de la période d’essai».
En ma qualité de Président d’AFRALO, je demande s’il y a des objections pour l’approbation des conditions sous lesquelles l’adhésion individuelle sera appliquée comme présenté dans la recommandation mentionnée.
Prière répondre dans les 72 heures.
Cordialement Aziz Hilali AFRALO Chair _______________________________________________ AFRI-Discuss mailing list AFRI-Discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org https://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/afri-discuss
