With Attachments: Approved Rules of Procedure
by Alan Greenberg July 5, 2016

July 5, 2016

Attached please find both a marked-up and clean version of the approved Rules of Procedure. On the marked-up version, the changes made through the Addendum distributed prior to the meeting or during ALAC discussions (paragraphs 19.8, 19.11.3, 19.11.4 and 19.11.6 are in a different colour to those originally proposed. The proposed changes prior to Section 19 which were not discussed are, of course, not there. If you find any errors, please let us know as soon as possible. I did notice one omission during my final proof of the revised version. Although 19.11.6 discusses the use of a random selection in the event that there is insufficient time for a 2nd vote, it does not say that a random selection will be used if the 2nd vote again results in a tie. I will propose a change to cover this what I put forward the earlier changes we did not discuss in Helsinki. Alan

July 4, 2016

As discussed in Helsinki, we will be issuing a call for candidates for the CSC Liaison today or tomorrow. The qualifications are below. There are not many people in At-Large who will satisfy these requirements, and we will only have a few days to collect Expressions of Interest, so we will all have to be pro-active, reach out to prospective applicants and encourage them to apply. We are looking for people with knowledge of gTLD or ccTLD registries an/or specific understanding of the functions that IANA provides. The workload will not be heavy, but it will be very important to attend the monthly calls. Please start thinking about who we should encourage to apply. The deadline for application will be 14 July.
