by Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond July 26, 2013

July 26, 2013

Dear all, just a reminder of the announcement below -- with the deadline for sending your resume/CV to the email addresses affiliated with each of the specialty areas by 29 July 2013. This gives you the week-end to send your resume out. Kind regards, Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond ALAC Chair On 15/07/2013 16:41, ICANN At-Large Staff wrote: > > [http://www.icann.org/images/gradlogo_bow.jpg]<http://www.icann.org/> > News Alert > > http://www.icann.org/en/news/announcements/announcement-15jul13-en.htm > > ________________________________ > ICANN Strategy Panels Launched > > Strategy Panels Unveiled at ICANN 47 in Durban > > 15 July 2013 > > During today's opening ceremony of ICANN 47 in Durban, South Africa, President and CEO Fadi Chehadé announced the creation of five new ICANN Strategy Panels that will serve as an integral part of a framework for cross-community dialogue on strategic matters. The ICANN Strategy Panels will convene subject matter experts, thought leaders and industry practitioners to support development of ICANN's strategic and operational plans, in coordination with many other global players, and will be comprised of up to seven members including the chair for an anticipated one-year timeframe. > > Designed to conduct work in critical strategic areas identified by the community, Board and staff, the ICANN Strategy Panels will build on public input being generated to inform a new, overarching vision and five-year strategic plan, and subsequent operating plan, for the organization. Advisory in nature, the ICANN Strategy Panels will report to Chehadé; will operate in a manner consistent with ICANN's commitment to transparency and accountability; and will channel all views, guidance and advice produced into the standard community and Board processes that guide ICANN's activities. > > In its fourteen-year history, ICANN has grown to reflect a changing landscape of continued innovation, interconnectedness, and unprecedented growth in the DNS ecosystem, one that transcends groups and borders to serve the public interest. Yet, the Internet is at a critical inflection point as billions of new people are expected to join the global network in the next few years and as the nature of its usage matures dramatically. With this in mind, the ICANN Strategy Panels are expected to help catalyze transformation and advance ICANN's role in the context of a dynamic, increasingly complex global environment. > > Schedules and Operations > > The ICANN Strategy Panels will conduct their activities, starting in September 2013, primarily online and through conference calls, although face-to-face meetings are expected to take place according to the needs of each panel. The ICANN Strategy Panels will also provide public updates on their progress that will be linked to ICANN's overall strategic and operational planning activities. Dedicated ICANN executive liaisons have been assigned to and will support each of the ICANN Strategy Panels throughout the process. > > Members and Objectives > > The ICANN Strategy Panels will focus specifically on identifier technology innovation; ICANN's role in the Internet organizations' ecosystem; ICANN multistakeholder innovation; the public responsibility framework; and the role of ICANN in the future of Internet governance. Chairs who will lead the panels in their respective concentrations and who will guide the panels in their groundbreaking efforts have been identified; however, qualified individuals interested in serving as committee members are still being sought. Potential panel members need not originate directly from ICANN structures, but should have a deep understanding of and concern for the work being undertaken by ICANN, and an ability to think strategically, globally, and creatively about the challenges inherent in the ICANN Strategy Panels' mandate. Interested individuals should send their resume/CV to the email addresses affiliated with each of the specialty areas by 29 July 2013. Members will be selected by ICANN's President & CEO, in coordination with each ICANN Strategy Panel Chair. > > ________________________________ > Strategy Panel on Identifier Technology Innovation > > Chair: Paul V.

NomCom Final report card
by Siranush Vardanyan July 23, 2013

July 23, 2013

Dear APRALO colleagues, I hope those who were in Durban reached your homes safe and sound as I did. First of all I would like to thank all those who were in Durban, especially Holly, my colleagues from different RALOs and ICANN staff for their support in my new position of APRALO Vice Chair. We had several very fruitful meetings related to our region, as well as meetings related to the topic of increasing the cross regional communication and cooperation between RALOs. There will be some follow up steps and activities coming later, but at this point I am still wearing my NomCom hat, and sending you the final report card, which explains the work, which was done in Durban. Would like to mention that we had very important decision making event in Durban and the whole selection process had been done in collegial manner with having unanimous consensus for all selected candidates. As you all know the names of selected candidates will be announced in September. I had also opportunity to talk with Satish Babu, who will be the new NomCom member from APRALO starting from Buenos Aires meeting and shared my experience in serving in NomCom. I wish Satish full of luck in this very important but also very interesting and learning process. Thanks again for all your support, my dear colleagues. Best Siranush Siranush Vardanyan Armenia

Re: [APAC-Discuss] FW: VOTE RESULTS: ALAC Voting Delegate to theNomCom for 2014 from APRALO
by h.raiche＠internode.on.net July 17, 2013

July 17, 2013

Hi Ali First, I agree, the voting process is confusing. However, by using preferential voting, the end result always indicates a winner. Just start with the notion that what is being counted is a person's choice, And if more people indicate that someone is their first choice by putting a 1 next to the name of their preferred candidate, that person will have the most '1's - or the lowest score. With that logic, the person who is the third choice with have the most '3's - or the highest score. Sorry if it is confusing, but it does produce an outcome showing people's preferred choice. And yes, there was some confusion as to when people could nominate. If you remember, Rinalia suggested that, before the process closed, the candidates should have an opportunity to talk to their candidacy - which is what you did and what happened. It meant that everyone voting had an opportunity to at least listen to the candidates. But what it meant was that the original deadlines had to be changed to accommodate the webinar. So what were hard and fast dates for nominations were moved. While that added to the confusion, it did give an opportunity for people to know a bit more about the candidates they would be voting for. I hope that has cleared things up but please get back to me with any further questions, and I apologise for not replying sooner. the ICANN meeting means I do not get to my emails as quickly as I should.

FW: VOTE RESULTS: ALAC Voting Delegate to the NomCom for 2014 from APRALO
by ICANN At-Large Staff July 17, 2013

July 17, 2013

Updates from Durban
by Salanieta Tamanikaiwaimaro July 13, 2013

July 13, 2013

Dear All, General Update Day 2 of the Africa DNS Forum starts at 9:00am which is in 2 hours of my sending this email. Remote streaming is available at the link I shared yesterday. It was great to see Chaitanya participate remotely and have his questions answered. So far, the generosity of the South African hospitality is really awesome. Today, there will be a session on Registrar Accreditation Agreement and diverse speakers. People are still arriving into Durban for the ICANN 47 and preparatory meetings have started for some. Will post the link for streaming or to see meeting schedules. Last night, we went to this African Dinner and watched a promotional video by Africa.com that is up on You Tube, see: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qKUVfcXB14w&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DqKUVfcX… The ATRT2 also had their dinner last night at Mojo Restaurant at the U Shaka Marine World. I am not sure whether they (Africa.com)are bidding for .africa The movie shows an interesting perspective of Africa that contradicts what is usually broadcasted. My favorite bit was Kenya being Africa's Silicon Valley. It is a powerful piece about the desire of a people to determine the course of their own destiny. It was also great to meet Andrew R from Solomon Telekom at Durban domestic Airport and David Conrad and others in Durban. We were on the same flight but did not know that was him. Congratulations to all the Fellows and this particular ICANN meeting promises to be doubly interesting. I would encourage people to stream into sessions that interest them and participate.
