Fwd: [Secretariat] Proposal for pilot reduction of F2F Monthly RALO meetings during ICANN Meetings
by Satish Babu April 27, 2017

April 27, 2017

Dear APRALO Community, We have had the practice of organizing RALO monthly meetings as face-to-face meetings when they happen during an ICANN meeting. This is because many ALS representatives are usually available during ICANN meetings, and a face-to-face meeting with whoever is present in person (with the rest of the ALSes joining in by telephone/Adobe Connect as usual) is a good opportunity to discuss things in detail. As per the mail below, ALAC is piloting an initiative that would eliminate RALO face-to-face monthly meetings during ICANN Meetings (except for the RALO in whose region that particular ICANN meeting is organized. The pilot would run for two meetings: ICANN59 and ICANN60 (of course, for us ICANN60 is the General Assembly, so it wouldn't apply to us for ICANN60). We would like to get the general feeling of the community on this matter. If any of you feel that this is a problem in any way, kindly let us know. If we do not hear comments, we will assume that we are ok with going ahead with the pilot. I am sending this out right away because the deadline for our response is very short (2 May 2017). May I also remind you that we have our monthly call tomorrow (Thursday, 27 April 2107) at 06:00 UTC? With kind regards, satish ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Heidi Ullrich <Heidi.Ullrich(a)icann.org> Date: Wed, Apr 26, 2017 at 5:18 AM Subject: [Secretariat] Proposal for pilot reduction of F2F Monthly RALO meetings during ICANN Meetings To: "secretariat(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org" < secretariat(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org> Dear All, During ICANN 58, the ALAC and Regional Leaders discussed the need for more time to discuss issues together as a team during ICANN Meetings or for Working Group Meetings. In order to open up more time on the At-Large schedule, a suggestion was made to begin a pilot to reduce the number of RALO f2f monthly meetings held during ICANN Meetings, in particular during the Community Forum (March Meeting) and the Policy Forum (June Meeting). The suggestion was that only the RALO in which the ICANN Meeting is taking place would be encouraged to hold their monthly meeting f2f during the ICANN Meeting. RALOs who need to plan events happening either in the months following the ICANN Meeting or at the next ICANN meeting could hold informal planning sessions if they wished. The Monthly Meetings of the RALOs would continue to be held via teleconference. The ALAC is requesting that the RALO leadership ask their regions if there is any strong feeling *not* to move ahead with this pilot and *report back to the ALAC by Tuesday, 2 May*.

Re: [APAC-Discuss] APRALO Individual membership form for review, comments and approval- Deadline April 26 - 23 UTC
by Alan Greenberg April 18, 2017

The term originated with the North American RALO which has had individual members who are unaffiliated with any ALS. In the NARALO rules, they are referred to as "unaffiliated individuals", but once they join NARALO, the term "unaffiliated member" has been used. You are correct that "unaffiliated member" is somewhat of a contradiction in that members are implicitly "affiliated" with the group of which they are a member. It has never been mentioned before, but perhaps it needs to be rethought as we move to having such a category in all RALOs.
