Thank you for distributing it to the Board for consideration. On August 13th, the At-Large Staff transmitted the Draft Statement to Karen Lentz, the ICANN staff person responsible for the public consultation process on Draft Applicant Guidebook Version 4 with a note saying that the document was currently undergoing ALAC ratification. On August 24th, the Chair of the At-Large Advisory Committee, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, asked the Staff of At-Large to start a five-day online ALAC vote on the draft statement. The online vote ended on August 28th and resulted in the ALAC endorsing the statement with 12-0 votes. Sebastien Bachollet, who informed the ALAC that he would be on leave during the voting period will be recorded as an abstention.
