Dear all,

I would like to take this opportunity to report that AP RALO formation
meeting here in Bali during APRICOt took place today, and I am pleased
to share that we have completed most of the tasks for the formation,
we reached the consensus on Draft MoU with ICANN, and also
on Operating Principles.

12 ALS representative out of 13 gathered here and we put our initiating
signatures to the documents, to be submitted to the ICANN Board.

We could not complete the selection of new ALAC members and
officers, but agreed with the selection schedule, including the nomination
starting shortly, for a week, etc.  The official announcment should come
any time soon together with the minutes of our meeting.

As one of "interim" members of ALAC together with Ms. Hong Xue
from AP region, I personally feel greatful to all the support and
active involvement of all ALS members here in our region, as well
as staff support, and also all the friendly advices and suport from
larger ALAC friends in other regions and othe ICANN community
memebrs. Nom-com designated Siavash did the great job
of charing the session of the entire day. Special thanks to Siavash!

Well, the real tasks will be still there, and not easy, but I hope
we will eventually make rational and meaningful steps to bring
the voices of individual users in this region to the ICANN policy
process.
