Dear All, Congratulations to Sebastien! Hearty thanks to Alan and Perrier for your long-time service and commitment to the community. APRALO had a poll to guide the Chair to vote. Although there were technical problems and two ALSes had to send in their opinions via emails, all the opinions were equally considered and counted and Sebastien slightly won out. I'm sure the process itself is a capacity building exercise for APRALO and shows that we do have strong faith in the At-large director to be elected. We wish for the more brilliant future for at-large.

Re: [At-Large] ICANN Board, Seat 15.

It is my pleasure to pass on your message of support and congratulations on this landmark point of ALAC and At-Larges evolution in ICANN; With this reply I am c.c'ing to the Working ALAC, Staff and public At-Large lists, and I trust that during Cartagena (if your Board schedule permits) we can find time to meet and mark the moment with the community present there, as *your ongoing and continual support of our efforts* within the SIC/ Board, and of course in the original *ALAC Review* process have, in my view, been *integral to getting us where we are today*... Also at Cartagena I hope we might find some (all to short I'm sure) time to mark the point of your leaving the ICANN Board which is, from my personal point of view and from the perspective of ALAC Chair, a great loss to our At-Large community; Not only because of your support of the implementation of our Improvements program, of course not limited to the ICANN Board seat #15, but perhaps most importantly because of the way that you take the time to be clear and descriptive to those of us 'outside the Board Room' about why and how you take the decisions you do in your work there; You are one of the most accountable and transparent ICANN Board members, we have seen over the years, and you have set a delightfully high benchmark for others to attain / maintain... *Thank you, Jean-Jacques, Very Much Indeed, for all you have done for ICANN and of course ALAC / At-Large.* Cheryl Langdon-Orr (CLO) ALAC Chair 2007-2010 On 29 November 2010 13:28, Jean-Jacques Subrenat <subrenat(a)icann.org> wrote: > Ms. Chair, > Dear Cheryl, > > now that the At-Large voting procedure has ended, I wish to congratulate > you and all your colleagues who helped carry this out in a transparent, > timely and efficient manner. > > Having had the privilege, during my period of duty on the Board, of working > in favour of an enhanced role for the At-Large community, I am especially > pleased that the candidate you elected will be a voting Director, and that > he will be seated at Cartagena, before the end of 2010. > > I would be grateful if you would convey my personal appreciation to your > At-Large colleagues on their fine work, and my warm congratulations to > Sébastien on being elected. > > As a Board member on the way out, I wish to add my deep appreciation for > your selfless engagement in tasks which forward the public interest, not > least as Chair of ALAC. > > Warmly, > Jean-Jacques. > > Envoyé depuis mon HTC > >

That is what At-Large is all about. End-users take many forms and it it dangerous to spend too much effort segmenting them. The only business users that concerns At-Large are those that have contractual relationships with ICANN, those who want to have such relationships, and their resellers and agents. IMO we need to acknowledge that At-Large means essentially everyone who is *not* a contracted party. We're all end-users and our voices all count.The president of Citibank has to use his computer just like you or me, and is affected by spam and phishing as much as us. IMO segmenting end-users, and going as far as saying the views of some users must be "balanced" by others, is what I find bothersome.

FW: Our choice for the ICANN Board
by SAMUELS,Carlton A Nov. 27, 2010

Nov. 27, 2010

I have been asked about my views by colleagues outside of LACRALO. FWIW, these are my views.....and I continue to hold them. Carlton -----Original Message----- From: lac-discuss-en-bounces(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:lac-discuss-en-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] On Behalf Of SAMUELS,Carlton A Sent: Thursday, November 25, 2010 9:13 AM To: lac-discuss-en(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org Subject: [lac-discuss-en] Our choice for the ICANN Board We support Alan Greenberg. That said, we shall not support a directed LACRALO vote. It really comes down to how effective you would wish the At-Large appointed director to be. We would have missed the critical points totally if you were to think it's about how much we like a person or how lockstep they agree with our every idea. In context, it would be useful to remind yourself that what we call the At-Large is very diverse. So all other qualifications being equal, effectiveness at the Board level rests on the personal dynamics of our choice with the people on the board. [I still recall witnessing my first ICANN board meeting where I saw a very attractive and bright woman being marginalized. The "Interests" simply shut her down!]. I am drawn to dissenters. But in this case user interests is way too important just to dissent; having influence is much better. We must encourage our representative to have influence. And then to use that influence to mediate the more flagrant disavowal of user or consumer interests that could arise at Board level. ICANN's Board is consistently peopled by persons representing the "Interests". If you're going to have influence from a position of one, we believe there are three things that apply 1) To be better prepared 2) To be more broadly knowledgeable across the various ICANN constituencies 3) Have the ability to use 1 and 2 as tools for driving consensus along a path consistently more favourable to user and/or consumer interests. This is the process of triangulation. It is the strategic model most utilized to succeed in the majority group when you are a minority. This is what we know, almost as birthright. We do not always agree with Alan. But to say he doesn't understand user or consumer interests cannot be supported on fact. For example, on the cross-ownership and related issues surrounding new gTLDs, we, as At-Large representatives, were diametrically opposed; he was for a priori regulation and I was for 'free trade'. In fact, some would have looked at this and concluded that he's more on the user side than I was on this issue. And while I deeply respect his views, I tend to loathe any indication of collective punishment. You do not penalize until and unless you have a case. Maybe the Board came to their conclusion by another meandering route. But in the end, they voted my perspective. Goes to show.

Reply to Siva [Was: Our choice for the ICANN Board]
by Alan Greenberg Nov. 27, 2010

Nov. 27, 2010

Siva, I am pleased to note that all of the candidates, potential candidates and the rest of the community have refrained from personal attacks. Since you have chosen this very public forum to again make statements about me which are not based in fact, I have no choice but to reply. I will be brief. On Vertical Integration I did support the proposal that was originally crafted by "Affilias, GoDaddy and others". I felt that in the short term, it was the safest way to proceed until we had fully explored the possible harms that could come from integration. I note that it was also supported by Sébastien Bacholet and Cheryl Langdon-Orr. So I guess that makes us all against users and pro-business. On Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery (PEDNR) There is an analysis of a work group survey that shows the positions of all workgroup participants who completed a survey on possible outcomes. My position and yours were quite similar and generally EXACTLY opposite to all of the registrars on the group. In the places where you and I differed, you are the one agreeing with the registrars. You can find the analysis at https://st.icann.org/data/workspaces/post-expiration-dn-recovery-wg/attachm…. (short version: http://tinyurl.com/PEDNR-WG-Survey) On my ties to business I have none. I have spent virtually all of my career in the public sector involved in education and research, education and research networking and more recently the Internet Society and ICANN and the support of ICT in developing countries.

[Français à suivre. Español a seguir.] Like Sébastien, I thank Pierre for his participation in this process, and I would like to thank all those who participated in this voting round. I look forward to any interchange with Sébastien, and I truly hope that all those voting and those who serve to influence the regional votes will make their choices based on the statements and records of the candidates. Please take the time to read them as they are perhaps the best indication of how your Director will perform once on the Board. All of my information can be found at https://community.icann.org/display/DirCan/Alan+Greenberg+-+At-Large+Board+…. I do not have the same language abilities as Sébastien, but I know that I can represent all users regardless of which of the many languages that they may speak. Perhaps more important, I do have the specific language skills to act as to the best ambassador of users on the Board - as shown by the many documents that I have authored on behalf of At-Large over the last four years. I have worked in countries in all five ICANN regions, and I would be honoured to take my place as the first Director selected by the At-Large Community and appreciate your support. Please feel free to contact me privately or through this list. Regards Alan -------------------------------------------- Comme Sébastien, je remercie Pierre de sa participation à ce processus, et je voudrais remercier tout ceux qui ont participé à ce vote en rond. J'attends avec intérêt n'importe quel échange avec Sébastien, et j'espère vraiment que tout ceux votant et ceux qui servent à influencer les voix régionales feront leurs choix basés sur les rapports et les disques des candidats. Veuillez prendre le temps de les lire car ils sont peut-être la meilleure indication de la façon dont votre directeur exécutera une fois sur le conseil. Toute mon information peut être trouvée chez https://community.icann.org/display/DirCan/Alan+Greenberg+-+At-Large+Board+…. Je n'ai pas les mêmes capacités de langue que Sébastien, mais je sais que je peux représenter tous les utilisateurs indépendamment dont des nombreuses langues qu'ils peuvent parler. Peut-être plus important, j'ai les capacités linguistiques spécifiques à agir quant au meilleur ambassadeur des utilisateurs sur le conseil - comme prouvé par les nombreux documents que j'ai écrit au nom d'At-Large au cours des quatre dernières années. J'ai travaillé dans les pays dans chacune des cinq régions d'ICANN, et je serais honoré pour prendre ma place en tant que premier directeur choisi par la Communauté At-Large et pour apprécier votre appui. S'il vous plaît n'hésitez pas à me contacter en privé ou par l'intermédiaire de cette liste. Sincèrement Alan -------------------------------------------- Como Sébastien, agradezco a Pierre por su participación en este proceso, y quisiera agradecer a todos los que participaron en esta votación. Miro adelante a cualquier intercambio con Sébastien, y espero en verdad que todos los que votan y los que sirven influenciar los votos regionales tomen sus decisiones basadas en las declaraciones y los expedientes de los candidatos. Tarden por favor la época de leerlos pues son quizás la mejor indicación de cómo su director se realizará una vez en el tablero. Toda mi información se puede encontrar en https://community.icann.org/display/DirCan/Alan+Greenberg+-+At-Large+Board+…. No tengo las mismas capacidades de lengua que Sébastien, sino que sé que puedo representar a todos los usuarios sin importar quienes, de las muchas lenguas que pueden hablar. Quizás más importante, tengo los conocimientos lingüísticos específicos a actuar en cuanto a el mejor embajador de usuarios en el tablero - como se muestra por los muchos documentos de que he sido autor en nombre de At-Large durante los cuatro años pasados. He trabajado en países en las cinco regiones de ICANN, y me honraría tomar lugar como el primer director seleccionado por la comunidad At-Large y tornarme disponible para compartir y llevar los puntos relevantes de ALAC. Sientanse libres por favor para contactarme en privado o por esta lista.
