Thanks Alan. In APRALO we were wanting to provide some guidelines for anyone who does not want to align themselves to a particular ALS but wants to be an independent member in our region. I am working in some of the ideas we have raised in our ALS criteria discussions
Are the expectations about participation, promotion of ICANN and its activities within community and ensuring that this engagement is published somehow.. blog, website, personal facebook etc - the same for indivs as they are for als groups? Why shouldnt they be? It would still be interesting to know why they dont align themselves with others.
How do they fit into our At-Large structure? We are making a high level of expectations for ALSes, can we make the same of individuals eg who want to be part of ALAC but who are also members of a number of other constituencies as well... and are really doing nothing in depth with At-Large.
In my ALS... I have a member who heads the ict unit of the PMs office so naturally she follows the GAC.. another works for the local ISP so I am trying to get him to come along to the ccNSO meetings. We are only an island of 9000 people. The chances of getting 3 people who are committed to end-user policy would be pushing it a bit. But they all hear what the ALAC and APRALO are up to in ICANN and within the region on our website. ☺

At the moment, the individual member rules vary from region to region (where there are any at all). There is a different Design Team within the ALS Review TF looking at this (led by Cheryl).
For NA, the unaffiliated (that is the term used in the Operating Principles) members elect a Representative who is functionally equivalent to an ALS Representative and who may cast votes (when there are any) and participate in any other NARALO activity where ALSes are present. For votes, it is a directed vote based on the votes of the unaffiliated member using a private poll (sometimes BigPulse, sometimes less formal).
One interesting question that comes up is should an unaffilitated membber who also belongs to NCSG vote?

In NARALO we have individual members but they are not an ALS. They are called non-aligned. The non-aliugned members choose one person who votes their slate. I do not think these new rules affect them but Alan could verify as he is an Individual Member of NARALO
Best,
Judith

One query - what about individual members who are an ALS of one.
They don't automatically have voting rights unless they are the elected rep of indiv members from within the region - that's the current model, I believe (for those RALOs who have indiv members)
