Hi all, I hope to be able to attend Fridays telecon, although I will only be able to confirm on friday. Meantime some responses to the staff questions: On 10 Jun 2008, at 6:00 PM, At-Large Staff wrote:
For your convenience, below you will find a restated set of the same questions.
1. What issues being debated in ICANN do you believe are the most important to your RALO?
I do not know, it is too complex to figure out in the time available. IMHO this is why we elect representatives to the committee to inform us of them. I have not been able to get a triage on this important task ...
2. How can we help make the time you spend on ICANN issues as valuable and efficient to you as possible?
Help with point one. Clear simple to read emails.
3. What challenges and opportunities do you see for your RALO and for At-Large more generally (in the context of ICANN work)?
Participation, representation, transparency, clarity.
4. How interaction between and within RALOs be increased?
Not important to me.
5. What are the top three things you would like your RALO to achieve?
Clear simple communications Regular reporting and updates Regular elections (e.g., "Operational Plan and Budget for FY 08/09" is not relevant to us, I would much prefer to see a whois TF update and gtld process update in simple to read language with the key points).
6. What are the top three things you believe ICANN Staff could do to help your RALO?
Ensure that our representatives are communicating and are representing our interests
