Regards On Mon, Sep 2, 2013 at 8:42 AM, Siranush Vardanyan <siranush_vardanyan@hotmail.com<mailto:siranush_vardanyan@hotmail.com>> wrote: Dear APRALO colleagues, First of all, congratulations with the starting of the new education year, I hope this year will bring more development and more inclusive communication among ourselves for the prosperity of At Large community. Secondly, there are several action items, discussed during our last call, which I would like all of you participate actively and bring your contribution. Those who participated in our monthly call on August 27 may already know about this, but I would like to make sure that all ALSs are aware. 1. APRALO Rules of Procedure: APRALO has an intention to form a Working Group (WG) to review current APRALO Rules of Procedure (ROPs) see: https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/RALO+Organising+Documents so they are in line with the revised ALAC Rules of Procedure; see https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Rules+of+Procedure. We have asked for volunteers for this WG and Cheryl Langdon-Orr already volunteered to be a member of this group. We are asking for more volunteers to work in this group to revise the ROPs and come up with suggestions. Please, those who would like to volunteer, send your names via our mailing list. As soon as several people will volunteer to form this group, the WIKI page as child page of the RALO Organising Documents, entitled "APRALO Rules of Procedures Review 2013" which has been created by the staff for the intention for all of you to visit and post your comments, even if you are not a member of this group and several calls will be organized for this purposes. 2. Updating APRALO ALSs information in Wiki see: https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+ALSes; - This relates to ALL ALSs: please, visit this wiki page and update or post the information about your ALSs there. We need all updated information. Please, post your organization's logo and the brief information there. If you have technical issues to do that, please, ask the staff for the support and send the information via staff@atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> 3. Participation in APRALO monthly calls. As you all know we have monthly conference calls and the information about our calls is being posted and reminders are being sent constantly via APRALO mailing list. We urge you all to participate actively in those monthly calls. A Working Group is developing a matrix to measure everyone's participation. It will be one of the tools we will be using when deciding who will be part of the At large Summit II (ATLAS II), which will take place in London, June, 2014. We are hoping you will be there, so we'd like to hear you all for our monthly meetings. 4. APRALO ALSs Spotlights - https://community.icann.org/display/APRALO/APRALO+ALSes+SpotlightAs you all are aware and this suggestion was proposed by many of you during our meeting in Beijing, from now on we will be having one ALS per call to present their ALS. This is a new initiative intended to showcase one APRALO ALS per month. The monthly APRALO Spotlight ALS will be asked to introduce their ALS during the APRALO monthly call. In addition information and activities of the featured ALS will be posted in this Workspace. We encourage you to volunteer for the coming months for this initiative and send in advance the information to the staff to post in Wiki space. During August call Satish Babu presented his ALS, Computer Society of India (CSI). We intend to post one week in advance to our calls the name of the ALS, which will be presented, for everyone to prepare the questions and comments to the presenter, to make this initiative more interactive and not just a presentation. Enjoy you day and thank you once again for your active participation.
