Makes sense to me if you are already going to be there. I agree with Fatima. Maureen On 6/03/2015 2:39 AM, "Alan Greenberg" <alan.greenberg@mcgill.ca> wrote:
For a number of reasons, Fatima has chosen to not attend the meeting in Istanbul. As I will already be in Istanbul for the CCWG Accountability and have been one of the more active ALAC Participants, Fatima has suggested that I attend in her place.
Such a change must be a formal decision of the ALAC. However, it also had to be taken very quickly. Under Section 5.11 of the ALAC Rules of Procedure (http://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2013-04), such decisions can be made by the ALAC Chair, preferably in consultation with the ALT. Since this involved me personally, I did not feel comfortable in making the decision and deferred to the other members of the ALT. They unanimously supported taking this action.
According to Section 5.11, this decision must now be ratified by the ALAC.
Note that Fatima has not resigned from the CWG and will be participating in the meeting remotely. This only affects her in-person attendance at the meeting.
I want to personally thank Fatima for her strong support of the ALAC and the CWG process, and I thank both Fatima and the other ALT Members for their faith in me personally. I am humbled.
With this message, I am requesting a CONSENSUS CALL of the ALAC to ratify the decision to name Alan Greenberg as an Alternate to Fatima Cambronero for attendance at the CWG IANA F2F meeting in Istanbul on 26-27 March. If you have any issue with this decision, I would suggest you first consult with the ALT member from your region and then, if neccesary, please let your feelings be known no later than 12 March 2015.
For clarity, in a CONSENSUS CALL, you may choose to explicitly voice your support, but silence will be taken as agreement.
Alan
