Dear RALO Leaders, The 2nd Draft Report of the Cross Community Working Group on Enhancing ICANN Accountability (CCWG Accountability) is now seeking comments. Its Public Comment period<https://community.icann.org/x/a45CAw> will end in 30 days (15 September 2015). T he 2nd Draft Report is available in two forms: 1) Full version: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/ccwg-draft-2-proposal-work-strea...; 2) section by section: https://community.icann.org/x/pKs0Aw. This Public Comment is of pivotal importance and the ALAC will be submitting a Statement. To ensure that we engage as widely as possible as the Statement is drafted, the ALAC is eager to hear from ALSes and individual members across the five RALOs to gather input. To facilitate that, we encourage you to incorporate the CCWG Accountability 2nd Draft Report as an agenda item in your RALO’s upcoming monthly teleconference in August. Alan Greenberg, Leon Sanchez, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, and/or other At-Large members/participants in the CCWG will be happy to briefly present and answer any questions . This effort will not only facilitate your members' understanding of this public comment, but also help the ALAC incorporate regional views in its Statement. RALO Leaders: If you’d like to have a presentation on the 2nd Draft Report in your next RALO call, please contact At-Large Staff ASAP and we will help coordinate the speakers and presentations. RALO s , ALSes and Unaffiliated Members may wish to submit separate comments or provide specific text for inclusion or appendix to the ALAC Statement, and you are encouraged to do so . I f you wish the ALAC to incorporate your Regional or Member view s in the ALAC Statement, please send your written input to At-Large Staff by 21 August 2015 at 23:59 UTC. We will also send this message with EN and ES translation across the RALOs to solicit input widely.
