Proposal for ALAC work on future challenges
Dear All, Please see below a proposal by Jean-Jacques on the use of a currently standing Working Group or the establish of a Task Force to discuss emerging ALAC challenges. This proposal will be discussed during today's Wrap-Up Session: ** Dear All, at the ALAC meeting on Sunday 13 March, a proposal was made regarding a working group or task force which would discuss emerging challenges and the way ALAC should address them. Building upon the debate which followed, and on conversations which have taken place since then, the following elements are submitted to your approval and/or discussion: PURPOSE AND NAME It is suggested the group would be called, at least for the time being, ALAC Task Force F (for Future), or TF-F. The notion of "task force" underlines its temporary nature, the fact that its duty is to address a given set of issues, and that it is expected to deliver results within a given time frame. MEMBERSHIP It is hoped the composition of TF-F will be fairly representative of ALAC's overall geographic diversity, but clearly personal motivation is of prime importance. Once the list of members has been established and agreed upon by ALAC, the members of TF-F will choose their two co-chairs (this can be done by e-mail, or in a conference call). Once constituted, TF-F may call upon experts, as required. PROGRAMME The first task of TF-F will be to propose a limited list of (perhaps 3 or 4) priority issues which the ALAC should address in the near future, because of their impact on the global Internet, on ICANN, on ALAC. These issues shall constitute the core of the work programme for TF-F for 2011. STAFF SUPPORT In parallel to the membership of TF-F being finalized, it would be necessary to finalize arrangements for Staff support for TF-F. VERY NEXT STEPS ALAC members interested in taking part in this work are requested to reply to this e-mail to * make known their candidacy * list the 3 or 4 topics they consider ALAC should take a position on, with regard to the future of the Internet, ICANN, or ALAC (in their order of priority, 1 being the most important or urgent). At this stage, the wording of these topics should be brief and self-evident. ** Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Matthias Langenegger, Seth Greene, Gisella Gruber-White, Marilyn Vernon, ICANN At-Large Staff

Dear All, after the initial e-mail from a week ago, here are the suggested next steps. WORK PLAN: as discussed before the vote, the idea is to have a limited number of themes (not more than 5?) to effectively cover areas the At-Large structures consider to be strategic. This does not imply any shift of attention away from other areas currently covered, nor from existing or expected obligations of the ALAC (response to Board request for advice, etc). To start the ball rolling, here are my own suggestions: - The global public interest (definition, overlap or separation of roles between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN policy and orientations); - Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest (for starters: new TLDs, WHOIS,...); - Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of At-Large within ICANN (policy formation, working with other components of ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large). MEMBERSHIP, CHAIR(s): Please indicate if you are interested in being part of this team, and if you'd accept being co-chair. It is suggested that once the membership has been approved by the ALAC for 2011-2012, the Task Force will designate its 2 co-chairs (2 in order to cope with temporary unavailability of either, and because it's a best practice). When a member leaves, (s)he may be replaced numerically by another volunteer. CHARTER: this should cover the term of the mandate (2011-12), strategic areas to be covered (see above), membership, mode of selection of the two co-chairs, and the usual administrative aspects (Staff support, frequency of meetings, reporting, archives, etc.). If our Chair or the ExCom agree, I would be grateful if Staff sent around what they consider a workable charter model (when I was on the Board, this was dealt with extensively by the BGC). NAME: during the discussion before the vote, TF-F (ALAC Task Force 'Future') was put forward. What's your view? We'll have time to cover other aspects, or go into more detail, at the next stage. I'd be grateful for your input. Regards, Jean-Jacques. On 17/03/11 10:42, "Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT" <jjs.global@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear Jean-Jacque, all, A few comments: As for the Work Plan, it would be good to find categories and themes that do not duplicate current ICANN topics. So. for example, instead of "new TLDs" and "WHOIS," which have been on the ICANN agenda for many years, could we consider "consumer protection" or "transparency" as possible topics? In other words, the Work Plan should provide an opportunity to explore new themes that could help shape the direction of ICANN It would also be good to begin with the mission statement for ALAC set out in the ICANN Bylaws. This is the key excerpt:
The role of the At-Large Advisory Committee ("ALAC") shall be to consider and provide advice on the activities of ICANN, insofar as they relate to the interests of individual Internet users. Art. XI, Sec. 9(4)
http://www.icann.org/en/general/bylaws.htm This should be the touchstone for our work going forward. As for the name, it would be in keeping with our intent to avoid an acronym, or at least to treat it is as a secondary designation. Perhaps "ALAC Task Force on the Future of the Global Public Interest" or "ALAC Task Force on the Future of the Internet" or "ALAC Task Force on the Future of ICANN." Any of these titles could be abbreviated "ALAC TF-F" but each title will convey additional meaning. I would suggest also that we explicitly consider techniques for receiving comments from the RALOs, ALSs and the larger user community. Thank you for considering these comments. I would be interested in being considered for co-chair if that is appropriate. Regards, Marc Rotenberg. On Mar 27, 2011, at 12:57 AM, Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT wrote:

Dear all, I support the idea to find more general categories for the new task force group, like: *ALAC outreach to ALSes *ALAC impact in ICANN policy *ALAC further development *Cross community effort *....to be completed, but not to many categories, rather focus on the main issues Also I think we should implement the outcome of work teams A,B,C,D work, in order to avoid being repetitively.

Dear Jean Jacques, I volunteer to be member of the team. As for the name, I think it should be expressive and simple, but Im well with anyone that can be accepted by all. Regarding the themes, I do think that the first action of this team is to seek input from the whole At-Large (ALSes, RALOs and ALAC). As you said their number shouldnt exceed 5.

WORK PLAN: as discussed before the vote, the idea is to have a limited number of themes (not more than 5?) to effectively cover areas the At-Large structures consider to be strategic. This does not imply any shift of attention away from other areas currently covered, nor from existing or expected obligations of the ALAC (response to Board request for advice, etc). To start the ball rolling, here are my own suggestions: - The global public interest (definition, overlap or separation of roles between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN policy and orientations); - Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest (for starters: new TLDs, WHOIS,...); - Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of At-Large within ICANN (policy formation, working with other components of ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large). MEMBERSHIP, CHAIR(s): Please indicate if you are interested in being part of this team, and if you'd accept being co-chair. It is suggested that once the membership has been approved by the ALAC for 2011-2012, the Task Force will designate its 2 co-chairs (2 in order to cope with temporary unavailability of either, and because it's a best practice). When a member leaves, (s)he may be replaced numerically by another volunteer. CHARTER: this should cover the term of the mandate (2011-12), strategic areas to be covered (see above), membership, mode of selection of the two co-chairs, and the usual administrative aspects (Staff support, frequency of meetings, reporting, archives, etc.). If our Chair or the ExCom agree, I would be grateful if Staff sent around what they consider a workable charter model (when I was on the Board, this was dealt with extensively by the BGC). NAME: during the discussion before the vote, TF-F (ALAC Task Force 'Future') was put forward. What's your view? We'll have time to cover other aspects, or go into more detail, at the next stage. I'd be grateful for your input. Regards, Jean-Jacques. On 17/03/11 10:42, "Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT" <jjs.global@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear All,
- thank you Chair for accommodating my request to make a quick oral
presentation this morning (Thursday 17 March);
- I am grateful to Evan and Gareth for moving and seconding a motion, and
thank you colleagues for supporting it.
Taking into account remarks made so far by members of the ALAC, my
proposal now reads:
PURPOSE AND NAME
It is suggested the group be called, at least for the time being, ALAC
Task Force F (for Future), or TF-F. The notion of "task force" underlines
its temporary nature, the fact that its duty is to address a given set of
issues, and that it is expected to deliver results within a given time
frame.
MEMBERSHIP
It is hoped the composition of TF-F will be fairly representative of
overall geographic diversity of the At-Large structures, but clearly
personal motivation is of prime importance. Once the list of members has
been established and agreed upon by ALAC, the members of TF-F will choose
their two co-chairs (this can be done by e-mail, or in a conference call).
Once constituted, TF-F may call upon experts, as required.
PROGRAMME
The first task of TF-F will be to propose a limited list of (perhaps 3 or
4) priority issues which the ALAC should address in the near future,
because of their impact on the global Internet, on ICANN, on At-Large.
ALAC members are encouraged to consult their regional communities on the
topics which are considered of importance. Once the ALAC has established
the initial list of issues, these shall constitute the core of the work
programme for TF-F for 2011.
STAFF SUPPORT
In parallel to the membership of TF-F being finalized, it would be
necessary to finalize arrangements for Staff support for TF-F.
VERY NEXT STEPS
ALAC members interested in taking part in this work are requested to reply
to this e-mail to
* make known their candidacy
* list the 3 to 5 topics they consider At-Large should take a position
on, with regard to the future of the Internet, ICANN, or At-Large (in
their order of priority, 1 being the most important or urgent). At this
stage, the wording of these topics should be brief and self-evident.

Dear All,
after the initial e-mail from a week ago, here are the suggested next
steps.
WORK PLAN: as discussed before the vote, the idea is to have a limited
number of themes (not more than 5?) to effectively cover areas the
At-Large structures consider to be strategic. This does not imply any
shift of attention away from other areas currently covered, nor from
existing or expected obligations of the ALAC (response to Board request
for advice, etc). To start the ball rolling, here are my own suggestions:
- The global public interest (definition, overlap or separation of roles
between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from
At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN
policy and orientations);
- Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest
(for starters: new TLDs, WHOIS,...);
- Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of
At-Large within ICANN (policy formation, working with other components of
ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large).
MEMBERSHIP, CHAIR(s): Please indicate if you are interested in being part
of this team, and if you'd accept being co-chair. It is suggested that
once the membership has been approved by the ALAC for 2011-2012, the Task
Force will designate its 2 co-chairs (2 in order to cope with temporary
unavailability of either, and because it's a best practice). When a member

CHARTER: this should cover the term of the mandate (2011-12), strategic
areas to be covered (see above), membership, mode of selection of the two
co-chairs, and the usual administrative aspects (Staff support, frequency
of meetings, reporting, archives, etc.). If our Chair or the ExCom agree,
I would be grateful if Staff sent around what they consider a workable

Dear Hong, as Sandra and Tijani have remarked (their e-mails from yesterday), this Task Froce must seek input from the whole of the At-Large structures (ALSes, RALOs, ALAC), and have the appropriate mechanism for that. Whether this is done through the ALAC members of the TF, or whether the membership could include volunteers from the other At-Large structures, is not for me to decide.

WORK PLAN: as discussed before the vote, the idea is to have a limited number of themes (not more than 5?) to effectively cover areas the At-Large structures consider to be strategic. This does not imply any shift of attention away from other areas currently covered, nor from existing or expected obligations of the ALAC (response to Board request for advice, etc). To start the ball rolling, here are my own suggestions: - The global public interest (definition, overlap or separation of roles between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN policy and orientations); - Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest (for starters: new TLDs, WHOIS,...); - Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of At-Large within ICANN (policy formation, working with other components of ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large). MEMBERSHIP, CHAIR(s): Please indicate if you are interested in being part of this team, and if you'd accept being co-chair. It is suggested that once the membership has been approved by the ALAC for 2011-2012, the Task Force will designate its 2 co-chairs (2 in order to cope with temporary unavailability of either, and because it's a best practice). When a member leaves, (s)he may be replaced numerically by another volunteer. CHARTER: this should cover the term of the mandate (2011-12), strategic areas to be covered (see above), membership, mode of selection of the two co-chairs, and the usual administrative aspects (Staff support, frequency of meetings, reporting, archives, etc.). If our Chair or the ExCom agree, I would be grateful if Staff sent around what they consider a workable charter model (when I was on the Board, this was dealt with extensively by the BGC). NAME: during the discussion before the vote, TF-F (ALAC Task Force 'Future') was put forward. What's your view? We'll have time to cover other aspects, or go into more detail, at the next stage. I'd be grateful for your input. Regards, Jean-Jacques. On 17/03/11 10:42, "Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT" <jjs.global@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear All,
- thank you Chair for accommodating my request to make a quick oral presentation this morning (Thursday 17 March); - I am grateful to Evan and Gareth for moving and seconding a motion, and thank you colleagues for supporting it.
Taking into account remarks made so far by members of the ALAC, my proposal now reads:
PURPOSE AND NAME
It is suggested the group be called, at least for the time being, ALAC Task Force F (for Future), or TF-F. The notion of "task force" underlines its temporary nature, the fact that its duty is to address a given set of issues, and that it is expected to deliver results within a given time frame.
MEMBERSHIP
It is hoped the composition of TF-F will be fairly representative of overall geographic diversity of the At-Large structures, but clearly personal motivation is of prime importance. Once the list of members has been established and agreed upon by ALAC, the members of TF-F will choose their two co-chairs (this can be done by e-mail, or in a conference call). Once constituted, TF-F may call upon experts, as required.
PROGRAMME
The first task of TF-F will be to propose a limited list of (perhaps 3 or 4) priority issues which the ALAC should address in the near future, because of their impact on the global Internet, on ICANN, on At-Large. ALAC members are encouraged to consult their regional communities on the topics which are considered of importance. Once the ALAC has established the initial list of issues, these shall constitute the core of the work programme for TF-F for 2011.
STAFF SUPPORT
In parallel to the membership of TF-F being finalized, it would be necessary to finalize arrangements for Staff support for TF-F.
VERY NEXT STEPS
ALAC members interested in taking part in this work are requested to reply to this e-mail to
* make known their candidacy * list the 3 to 5 topics they consider At-Large should take a position on, with regard to the future of the Internet, ICANN, or At-Large (in their order of priority, 1 being the most important or urgent). At this stage, the wording of these topics should be brief and self-evident.
**
I'd be glad to respond to any questions or comments.

Hello, Please add me to the list of interested people. As I have said to many, my own interest within At-Large (looking beyond the new gTLDs issues which will eventually be resolved one way or the other) involve moving the public interest from the occupation of an Advisory Committee (and underlying structure) into an integral part of ICANN's DNA. Such an effort will need to be proactive as we cannot count on other corners of ICANN to initiate such a broad agenda. One tactical component of this effort IMO is the creation of an end-users Charter of Rights that IMO must frame all policy development and ICANN operations, and ultimately become part of the bylaws. We addressed that briefry during the RAA amendments WG where that was (probably rightfully) deemed to be out of scope for that particular activity. As far as naming, my first choice would be "Public Interest Task Force", my second would be "Forward-Looking Task Force" and my third would be "Task Force on Future Challanges". - Evan

ALAC Task Force on the Future of the Internet
Further to the work of this committee, we should take into account the recent statement of the Internet Rights and Principles Coalition: http://www.irpcharter.org/images/IRPflyer.pdf This is an important articulation of the interests of Internet users. Perhaps we could adopt "Internet Rights and Principles" as one of our five topic areas, though "Charter of Rights" would also meet this task. As for the final five topics, we could select four that have a specific program focus and reserve the fifth as a general catchall. Regards, Marc.

It was further suggested (MR) that the Task Force be given a Mission Statement, quoting the relevant section of the ICANN Bylaws, Art. XI, section 9(4), "The role of the At-Large Advisory Committee ("ALAC") shall be to consider and provide advice on the activities of ICANN, insofar as they relate to the interests of individual Internet users.²
WORK PLAN - The global public interest, including definition, overlap or separation of roles between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN policy and orientations (JJS)
- Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest (JJS)
- Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of At-Large within ICANN, inter alia policy formation, working with other components of ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large (JJS)
- Transparency (MR)
- Consumer protection (MR)
- Improving outreach to and input from At-Large structures (TBJ, SH, MR)
- ALAC further development (SH, JJS)
- Working with other components of ICANN to maximize impact (SH, JJS)
- Internet governance (DK)
- End-users' Charter of Rights (EL)
You are requested to choose not more than five of the above, in your order of preference (from 1 crucial, to 5 less important)
Your comments are most welcome.
REMINDER: please send your input before Friday 1st of April 2011, 23:00 UTC.
Regards, Jean-Jacques.

Dear Jean-Jacques, Thanks for your laudable proposal and initiative. Yes, I would like to form part of the team as an ordinary member. I think Internet Governance should be one of the suggested themes to be addressed since this has always gathered global public interests. Concerning the name, I have a simple proposal like ALACOM - ALAC OUTLOOK MISSION Thanks and best regards Dave Kissoondoyal MBA, ACMI CE0 - KMPGlobal Ltd -----Original Message----- From: alac-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:alac-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] On Behalf Of Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT Sent: Sunday, March 27, 2011 8:57 AM To: ICANN At-Large Staff; alac@atlarge-lists.icann.org Subject: Re: [ALAC] Proposal for ALAC work on future challenges Importance: High Dear All, after the initial e-mail from a week ago, here are the suggested next steps. WORK PLAN: as discussed before the vote, the idea is to have a limited number of themes (not more than 5?) to effectively cover areas the At-Large structures consider to be strategic. This does not imply any shift of attention away from other areas currently covered, nor from existing or expected obligations of the ALAC (response to Board request for advice, etc). To start the ball rolling, here are my own suggestions: - The global public interest (definition, overlap or separation of roles between various parts of the ICANN community, desired contribution from At-Large structures, action and possible impact by the ALAC on ICANN policy and orientations); - Key areas of possible ALAC action to uphold the global public interest (for starters: new TLDs, WHOIS,...); - Beyond the ALAC Review recommendations: how to increase the impact of At-Large within ICANN (policy formation, working with other components of ICANN, a communications policy for At-Large). MEMBERSHIP, CHAIR(s): Please indicate if you are interested in being part of this team, and if you'd accept being co-chair. It is suggested that once the membership has been approved by the ALAC for 2011-2012, the Task Force will designate its 2 co-chairs (2 in order to cope with temporary unavailability of either, and because it's a best practice). When a member leaves, (s)he may be replaced numerically by another volunteer. CHARTER: this should cover the term of the mandate (2011-12), strategic areas to be covered (see above), membership, mode of selection of the two co-chairs, and the usual administrative aspects (Staff support, frequency of meetings, reporting, archives, etc.). If our Chair or the ExCom agree, I would be grateful if Staff sent around what they consider a workable charter model (when I was on the Board, this was dealt with extensively by the BGC). NAME: during the discussion before the vote, TF-F (ALAC Task Force 'Future') was put forward. What's your view? We'll have time to cover other aspects, or go into more detail, at the next stage. I'd be grateful for your input. Regards, Jean-Jacques. On 17/03/11 10:42, "Jean-Jacques SUBRENAT" <jjs.global@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear All,
- thank you Chair for accommodating my request to make a quick oral
presentation this morning (Thursday 17 March);
- I am grateful to Evan and Gareth for moving and seconding a motion, and
thank you colleagues for supporting it.
Taking into account remarks made so far by members of the ALAC, my
proposal now reads:
PURPOSE AND NAME
It is suggested the group be called, at least for the time being, ALAC
Task Force F (for Future), or TF-F. The notion of "task force" underlines
its temporary nature, the fact that its duty is to address a given set of
issues, and that it is expected to deliver results within a given time
frame.
MEMBERSHIP
It is hoped the composition of TF-F will be fairly representative of
overall geographic diversity of the At-Large structures, but clearly
personal motivation is of prime importance. Once the list of members has
been established and agreed upon by ALAC, the members of TF-F will choose
their two co-chairs (this can be done by e-mail, or in a conference call).
Once constituted, TF-F may call upon experts, as required.
PROGRAMME
The first task of TF-F will be to propose a limited list of (perhaps 3 or
4) priority issues which the ALAC should address in the near future,
because of their impact on the global Internet, on ICANN, on At-Large.
ALAC members are encouraged to consult their regional communities on the
topics which are considered of importance. Once the ALAC has established
the initial list of issues, these shall constitute the core of the work
programme for TF-F for 2011.
STAFF SUPPORT
In parallel to the membership of TF-F being finalized, it would be
necessary to finalize arrangements for Staff support for TF-F.
VERY NEXT STEPS
ALAC members interested in taking part in this work are requested to reply
to this e-mail to
* make known their candidacy
* list the 3 to 5 topics they consider At-Large should take a position
on, with regard to the future of the Internet, ICANN, or At-Large (in
their order of priority, 1 being the most important or urgent). At this
stage, the wording of these topics should be brief and self-evident.
**
I'd be glad to respond to any questions or comments.
Regards,
Jean-Jacques.
