*This may be a bit late, but reading once again the draft, I am struck by two potential problems: * *- the ALAC and the At-Large structures are bundled together. In process terms, anything from the At-Large structures destined to the Board are voted upon by the ALAC. This is not reflected in the current wording.* *- The term "end-user" may give rise to various (legal) interpretations, as a corporation, or an NGO, can also claim that definition.* * * *May I suggest a slight rewording:* *The ALAC, building upon the experience and views of the At-Large community, catalyzes and facilitates inclusive, meaningful participation of general Internet users world-wide, aggregates their input and brings their voice to bear in all ICANN matters.* *Regards,* *Jean-Jacques.* * * * * 2012/5/16 ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org>

Dear All,
The ALAC Improvements Review WG Final Report included a recommendation that "the ALAC should develop strategic and operational planning processes (including performance criteria and cost information) as part of ICANN's planning process." (Recommendation 5 <https://community.icann.org/display/Improve/Recommendation+5> ).
As part of the implementation of this recommendation, the At-Large Improvements Implementation Work Team C created an action item to "articulate ALAC's and At-Large's vision and mission."
The At-Large Improvements Taskforce developed a proposed At-Large Vision Statement during their meeting at the 43rd ICANN Meeting in Costa Rica.
The proposed At-Large Vision Statement is:
. The ALAC and At-Large community catalyzes and facilitates inclusive, meaningful participation of Internet end-users world-wide, aggregates their input and brings their voice to bear in all ICANN matters.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond, Chair of the ALAC, and Cheryl Langdon-Orr, Chair of the At-Large Improvements Taskforce, have outlined the following next steps for the proposed At-Large Vision Statement:
. 4-17 May 2012 - This proposed At-Large Vision statement is open for comments between 4-17 May 2012. Please use the comments function on this wiki page <https://community.icann.org/x/esPbAQ> to add any suggestions or send your comments to At-Large Staff at: staff@atlarge.icann.org.
. 21 May 2012 - The At-Large Improvements Taskforce will review and incorporate comments received during their 21 May meeting.
. 22 May 2012 - The ALAC will review the proposed At-Large Vision Statement during their 22 May ALAC meeting and vote whether to ratify it.
