As the ALAC Meeting asked for you to put a simple Statement reflecting our previously stated views on this together and to respond to the current update on the petition, personally I'm happy for this to go to Vote now unless someone on this list objects... (In the next 12-24 hrs) and if we do need to edit / discuss we need that to happen in short order over the next few days... Then we need to send it to Public Comments (be nice to have something in ahead of the deadline ;-) CLO 2010/1/29 Beau Brendler <beaubrendler@earthlink.net>
So I thought I would run this by you both. If you like it feel free to post it to the list for comment or straight to the ALAC for a vote, I guess (?). I see no reason for it to be long. ------------------ As it did during the previous public comment period earlier this year, the At-Large Advisory Committee states its support for the creation of a consumer constituency in the non-commercial stakeholder group in the GNSO. Since one of At-Large's goals is to support the interests of all Internet users, we believe that consumer and public interest groups should have a strong representative voice in the GNSO policymaking environment. We applaud the organizers' efforts to recruit additional organizations, including the Greek consumer group EKPIZO, and to obtain formal commitments from those who have already expressed interest. Consumers' constituency members come from Canada, Belgium, Greece, Slovenia and Australia and we believe this represents a small, but good start in obtaining broad geographic representation. We encourage the board to approve the constituency so that its organizers can recruit new members from a solid foundation.
