Note a small change in the text at the final sentence.... Carlton Dear Colleagues: Based on the feedback and various discussions, I present this text hereunder as a representative draft response: "The ALAC welcomes the recommendation of the BGC that the ALAC is allocated two (2) seats on the ICANN Board. This development is very useful in projecting to the AT-Large community and users in general the value that ICANN place on our engagement in the process and provides a real opportunity to see the views of the community reflected in policy and administration. When the time comes for this recommendation to be implemented, we would wish that At-Large is reserved the right to determine a selection process for these seats with a right of recall embedded."
