Subject: [ALAC-Internal] Welcome to At-Large!

Dear Wu Ping and Zhong Rui,

ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that ISC

has been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS). The ALAC greatly

appreciates your group's interest in involving individual users in APRALO

and ICANN and looks forward to working with you and your colleagues.

The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your

organization, other ALSes, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your

input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated.

It¹s very important to keep the members of your organization informed (about

significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development

efforts) and engaged in activities of interest. Here are a few of the tools

members of At-Large find useful:

The At-Large wiki space is where you can find most of the relevant

information:

The At-Large introductory page

<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2265510> help you

navigate through the wiki contents. This is where you can find the latest

announcements, and subscribe to the At-Large Google calendar

<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Calendar> at the bottom of the

page. This will ensure you never miss a meeting!

From any chosen page in the At-Large wiki, you can find your bearings easily

by navigating via the purple box at the top left hand corner of the page. It

is very convenient to be able to consult the latest

<https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=2265510> At-Large

Policy Development Activity <https://community.icann.org/x/bwFO> , find out

more about the Regional At-Large Organizations (RALOs)

<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Regional+At-Large+Organisations

, and about At-Large Working Groups

<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Working+Groups> .

For the most up to date information about At-Large meetings during ICANN

Public meetings, it is worth bookmarking this wiki page

<https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/ICANN+Meetings> !

Regional wiki webpages also have been created to distribute information

(including in local languages) on activities, events and issues of

particular interest to people in each region. These are maintained by the

community. They are:

African Region: http://www.afralo.org <http://www.afralo.org/>

Asia/Australia/Pacific Region: http://www.apralo.org

<http://www.apralo.org/>

European Region: http://www.euralo.org <http://www.euralo.org/>

Latin America/Caribbean Region: http://www.lacralo.org

<http://www.lacralo.org/>

At-Large Mailing Lists. There are many At-Large email lists, for each

region, you can sign up to them and manage your subscriptions at:

http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo .

The primary and secondary points of contact you have identified in the

application form will automatically be added to your region's list just for

accredited ALSes to discuss regional issues and to the mailing list for

Staff announcements (only Staff can post messages to that list); you are

invited to join others as you wish.

ALAC website. The ALAC website <http://www.atlarge.icann.org/> is a good

source for ICANN news and information of interest to individual Internet

users. We encourage you to provide your members with a link. The ALAC

relies on volunteers to translate information into multiple languages.

Translations of documents on the website are welcome and should be sent to

At-Large staff. <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>

ICANN website: The ICANN website <https://www.icann.org/> is where all

announcements <https://www.icann.org/news> are posted, and where you can

find practical information about ICANN Public meetings

<http://meetings.icann.org/> .

Skype chat: At-Large community members and staff use Skype group chats

extensively. A group chat exists for most Working Groups and RALOs. So

please don¹t hesitate to send At-Large Staff your Skype ID and we¹ll gladly

add you to the relevant chats. Please click

<applewebdata://5FDBE40C-D9C0-4DBD-81A6-E27CA698E5CC/www.skype.com> here

<http://www.skype.com/en/> <http://www.skype.com/en/> if you don¹t have a

Skype account. It¹s free and staff are available to help if you run into any

trouble.

Facebook: The At-Large community has its own Facebook page

<https://www.facebook.com/icann.atlarge?fref=ts> . It¹s useful to keep up

with announcements and helpful information

Twitter: Members of At-Large tweet extensively and are particularly active

during ICANN Public meetings. Follow

<https://twitter.com/ICANN_AtLarge?lang=fr%3E> At-Large on Twitter

<https://twitter.com/ICANNAtLarge?lang=fr%3E> !

The At-Large website is undergoing a revamp, you will receive official

notification of the launch next Tuesday, there will be a space available to

new ALSes in order to gather information about At-Large activities. In the

meantime, please refer to the recordings

<https://community.icann.org/x/NA8nAw> of our past APRALO Capacity Building

Webinars for new ALSes which took place in 2015. You may also like to refer

to the APRALO Outreach Strategic Plan

<https://community.icann.org/x/d500Aw> for further engagement opportunities.

We look forward to working with you and your organization's members to

advance individual Internet users' interests within ICANN. If you have any

questions, or need additional information, please contact us at

staff@atlarge.icann.org.

Sincerely,

The At-Large Advisory Committee
