ALAC Rules of Procedure
by Nick Ashton-Hart June 6, 2007

June 6, 2007

Dear All: Herewith are the ALAC's Internal Rules of Procedure, which Vittorio Bertola, former ALAC Member for Europe, Former ALAC Chair, and present At-Large Board Liaison, took the lead in drafting and editing. Since there are provisions dealing with election of At-Large liaisons, nomination periods for the liaisons and also for the ALAC's officers, these may be of interest to the wider community. Note that current versions of these, plus draft Rules of Procedure for At-Large meetings and bodies, are always available at: https:// st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi?rules_of_procedure Spanish and French versions of this text will be available in the next 10 days from the URL above. -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart Director, At-Large ICANN PO Box 32160 London N4 2XY United Kingdom Main Tel: +44 (20) 8800-1011] USA Tel: +1 (202) 657-5460 Fax: +44 (20) 7681-3135 mobile: +44 (7774) 932798 email: nick.ashton-hart(a)icann.org Win IM: ashtonhart(a)hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart(a)mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart

Dear all, I agree with Bilal that as the funds available with ALS' at this stage are limited to meet their individual organisational goal, but it is equally important to have such interim meetings in order to discus and streamline the future course of action of APRALO (as also the member ALS') it would be advisable that ICANN bears the cost of these initial but crutial discussions. We do understand that the funds at ICANN at this stage would be limited so a suitable solution for the same could be arrived at by consensus, if required sponsorship options could also be explored.

Hi Edmon and All, I think a meeting in July would be beneficial to all of us. As far as AKMS, funding is very limited. If ICAAN funds such a meeting we would be glad to take part. Sincerely, Bilal Beiram -----Original Message----- From: apac-discuss-bounces(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:apac-discuss-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] On Behalf Of Edmon Chung Sent: Saturday, June 02, 2007 7:07 AM To: 'Asia-Pacific Discuss' Subject: [APAC-Discuss] APRALO gathering in Hong Kong July 25 Hi Everyone, Some of you may be aware, there will be an ICANN Regional Registry-Registrar Gathering in Hong Kong: July 26-27, 2007. These types of regional gathering is intended to be informal sessions that provide opportunity for better communication between registries and registrars. Since the AP meeting original scheduled for October 07 is now delayed to Feb 08, I was thinking it may be a good idea to convene in the interim to set out some of the things to do now that we have formally formed the APRALO. I have chatted with Raj, Cheryl and a few others briefly about this a couple of days ago as well and all thought it may be a good idea to find a chance to meet face to face. One of the areas of discussion (among others, e.g. IDN, new gTLDs, etc.) may be to take the opportunity to meet the registries and registrars informally to understand more about the domain tasting issues. I would like to suggest having an APRALO gathering on July 25 2007 here in Hong Kong. ISOC HK is happy to help arrange the logistics and to host the meeting here. Nick mentioned however that funding from ICANN for travel maybe tight (but not impossible if only for a very limited number...). I would like to see how the schedules for others look like for July 25, and whether there is interest to meet. Thoughts? Hope to see everyone in HK soon :-) Edmon _______________________________________________ APAC-Discuss mailing list APAC-Discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/apac-discuss_atlarge-lis ts.icann.org Homepage for the region: http://www.apralo.org

APRALO gathering in Hong Kong July 25
by Edmon Chung June 2, 2007

June 2, 2007

Hi Everyone, Some of you may be aware, there will be an ICANN Regional Registry-Registrar Gathering in Hong Kong: July 26-27, 2007. These types of regional gathering is intended to be informal sessions that provide opportunity for better communication between registries and registrars. Since the AP meeting original scheduled for October 07 is now delayed to Feb 08, I was thinking it may be a good idea to convene in the interim to set out some of the things to do now that we have formally formed the APRALO. I have chatted with Raj, Cheryl and a few others briefly about this a couple of days ago as well and all thought it may be a good idea to find a chance to meet face to face. One of the areas of discussion (among others, e.g. IDN, new gTLDs, etc.) may be to take the opportunity to meet the registries and registrars informally to understand more about the domain tasting issues. I would like to suggest having an APRALO gathering on July 25 2007 here in Hong Kong. ISOC HK is happy to help arrange the logistics and to host the meeting here. Nick mentioned however that funding from ICANN for travel maybe tight (but not impossible if only for a very limited number...). I would like to see how the schedules for others look like for July 25, and whether there is interest to meet. Thoughts? Hope to see everyone in HK soon :-) Edmon
