ICANN News Alert -- Attention Adobe Connect Users: Service Change (Action Required)
by ICANN At-Large Staff Sept. 27, 2016

Sept. 27, 2016

[ICANN][icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.icann.org_&d=DQMFaQ…> News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-3-2016-09-26-en[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_news_ann…> ________________________________ Attention Adobe Connect Users: Service Change (Action Required) 26 September 2016 Adobe Connect, ICANN's remote participation tool, is moving over to an ICANN-hosted server. The transition will occur on a rolling basis between 26 September and 14 October 2016. After 14 October, all Adobe Connect meetings will use the new server. ICANN made this change to address the performance and reliability problems you have been experiencing. Having the server under ICANN's management means that Adobe Connect will be more stable than in the past. You should experience increased call quality and better customer service. In addition, we will be able to create custom pods - for example, multilingual chat, multilingual scribe streams and timers. What Exactly Is the Change? Old server: icann.adobeconnect.com New server: participate.icann.org What Do I Have to Do? Important! Because the change is happening in phases, not all meetings will move over to the new server at the same time. During the transition period, check your meeting invitation for the correct URL. If you have any questions, contact the meeting organizer. * If you are a meeting attendee, you don't have to do anything. Your meeting organizer should be updating the meeting request with the new URL. * If you are a meeting organizer, update the meeting notice. Change the portion of the URL that specifies the server to the new ICANN server. What if I Have Questions? Email your questions to mts(a)icann.org<mailto:mts@icann.org>.

Of particular importance, please note the following: - (As per RoP 7.3) Liaisons to AC/SOs need not be ALAC Members, but they will normally be current or past ALAC Members, or otherwise familiar with the ALAC and At-Large and the TG to whom they will liaise. - (As per RoP 7.8) When representing the ALAC, Appointees have an obligation to solicit ALAC and At-Large views on the matter where practical and possible. Appointees should be selected knowing that in many instances such consultation may not be possible or practical and thus the ALAC needs to select people who understand the philosophies or guiding values and principles of the ALAC and At-Large. - Liaisons should be selected based on their familiarity with the group to which they are appointed. Having worked extensively with them before in some capacity (such as on multiple WGs) is a strong asset. - A level of trust between a Liaison and the group to which they are appointed is mandatory for success and must already exist or it should be demonstrable how or why it may exist in the future. - Liaisons to AC/SOs require a MAJOR time commitment over and above other At-Large responsibilities. - For the SSAC Liaison position, the ALAC only makes a recommendation. The Liaison is a full SSAC Member and must satisfy SSAC criteria and follow SSAC processes for admission to the AC. - For the GAC Liaison position, the potential candidate must be approved by GAC Leadership. - For .MOBI, the prime issue not as much mutual respect and trust, but ensuring that the Liaison understands the business of .MOBI and is well versed in mobile technologies. Liaison reports may be seen here<https://community.icann.org/x/-pQi>. Liaisons are asked to provide monthly reports which summarize activities in the organization to which they are the Liaison.

For nominations made by people without access to the ALAC list, Staff will post to the ALAC list. All Nominees, in their acceptance or self-nomination, must provide an Expression of Interest including sufficient information about their background and experience to allow the ALAC Appointment Selection Committee to review the nominations and decide on whether to forward their candidacy to the ALAC. The Selection Committee may choose to forward one or more candidates to the ALAC for each position. The Selection Committee or its Chair may choose to ask follow-up questions, but it is not obliged to, so submissions should be as complete as possible.
