Inaugural APRALO Fireside chat: "Let’s Talk about GNSO PDP 3.0” Thursday 26 May 2022 at 06:00 UTC PLEASE REGISTER TO JOIN AND SHARE THIS INVITATION WITH ALL! English only If you have any, please let us have your questions on this topic in advance. You can submit them by emailing staff or posting them as comments here: https://community.icann.org/x/8g7CCw. Otherwise, just come along and ask your questions during the event. Dear All, On behalf of the APRALO Policy Forum Co-Chairs, Justine Chew and Satish Babu, we invite you to participate in the inaugural APRALO Fireside chat: "Let’s Talk about GNSO PDP 3.0" on Thursday 26 May 2022 at 06:00 UTC for 60 minutes, where Justine will be chatting with her guest, Cheryl Langdon-Orr, the immediate past ALAC Liaison to the GNSO Council. Justine and Cheryl welcome you to join them in an informal conversation on a few key aspects of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO)'s operating procedure for consensus policy development for Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs). Given that a significant proportion of the At-Large Community's participation in ICANN policy-making is centered around its contributions towards consensus policies on gTLDs, it would be helpful for the At-Large Community to understand how the GNSO policy development process (GNSO PDP) works, and where and when At-Large participation in GNSO PDPs is needed. This can be facilitated through a general appreciation of the GNSO Operating Procedures and Related Documents such as the Policy Development Process (PDP) Manual, the Expedited GNSO Policy Development Process (EPDP) Manual, the GNSO Guidance Process (GGP) Manual, as well as the implementation of GNSO PDP 3.0 in introducing incremental improvements to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of GNSO PDPs. Do you feel daunted in reading or hearing about all these long-worded terms or references to multiple names and documents? Would you like a refresher on how At-Large plays a role in consensus policy development for gTLDs within ICANN? Do you want to find out how you can get involved in At-Large discussions on policy issues from an individual end user's perspective? Well then, please take the step in registering for and joining Justine and Cheryl's conversation on Thursday 26 May 2022 at 06:00 UTC. ZOOM Registration: https://icann.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwqdOCuqDMuHNDchechIMBVvtXFUCBIlTxK [icann.zoom.us]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/icann.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwqdOCuq…> And if you have any, please let us have your questions on this topic in advance. You can submit them by emailing staff or posting them as comments here: https://community.icann.org/x/8g7CCw. Otherwise, just come along and ask your questions during the event.

At the time of their presentations, these were trending topics within ICANN, and they still are.* *We have invited Jonathan Zuck and Alan Greenberg to bring us up to date and go over these two efforts. Their presentations will remind us of what was presented before, so if you did not attend these presentations, no worries, you will be able to put them in context and follow them.* *For six months, Denise Hochbaum has led the At-Large Social Media Working Group (SMWG). She will present the ICANN 73 Social Media Campaign results to the region.**"* Register *HERE <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://icann.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJIldui…>* if you want active participation during the meeting; Otherwise, watch the presentation LIVE on the following NARALO or ISOC Puerto Rico (ALS) social media channels at your convenience.

Fwd: Advice to the Board?
by Maureen Hilyard May 3, 2022

May 3, 2022

Dear At-Large Community If you have been following the At-Large community discussion list, you will have noted the concern that has been raised about a waiver that ICANN is imposing on the volunteer community to provide their signature to the document, as a prerequisite to being granted travel sponsorship to attend F2F ICANN Meetings. The waiver absolves ICANN of any responsibility for an ICANN participant'sgetting ill or is harmed in any way, even if it is ICANN's fault. This is the core concern for us as volunteers. It is seen as an unreasonable ask of volunteers who have always known that they have to take responsibility for themselves not only when attending ICANN meetings, but also when they participate in other F2F meetings and working group activities that occur in between ICANN meetings. We can appreciate that ICANN needs to protect itself, but while doing so they should not abdicate their duty of care to all those members of the ICANN community who have dedicated many years to providing personal inputs into ICANN's important work - to produce policy that will help to protect the DNS. It is taken for granted that "years" is the normal measurement in time which is required to produce formal outputs from ICANN. During the At-Large community discussions, a raft of reasons developed which related to how this waiver that has been imposed as a pre-requisite to any travel support, impacts volunteer communities throughout ICANN. These reasons were noted and transformed into a list of 10 reasons why the waiver is not one of the best decisions that has come out of ICANN - more especially because it did not adhere to one of its core principles "the bottom-up, multistakeholder model". I have called the ALAC members together to make a decision about the waiver (the invitations for them to do so is below) to seek their support for "*the waiver and the expectation that it is signed before any travel sponsorship is provided, to be withdrawn*" Although we have to consider that this course of action may not be actionable before ICANN74, we would ultimately like to return to what was the practice of the past when the community was trusted. We have always known that we were attending ICANN meetings at our own risk and would not have earlier contemplated taking action against ICANN for any illness or harm that might befall us if it was the fault of the individual during an ICANN meeting. There was also some need to address the section that had been identified as a key sticking point "*I knowingly and freely assume all risks related to illness and infectious diseases, including but not limited to COVID-19, even if arising from the negligence or fault of ICANN "* I already have a majority of the ALAC members who have immediately added their support to my request to submit Marita's 10 reasons why the waivers should be removed, *as the basis of our Advice to the Board that the waiver be withdrawn*. In case they are otherwise engaged, other ALAC members still have a bit of time to respond (by Sunday 1 May 23.59utc) before the request is formally submitted as ALAC advice to the Board. *Although many of our community already participated earlier, I would hope that others in our At-Large community will also support this request. Please let me know if you would like to add your name to our letter of Advice to the Board.* Maureen ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Maureen Hilyard <maureen.hilyard(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Apr 29, 2022 at 11:14 PM Subject: Advice to the Board? To: ALAC Members <ALAC-members(a)icann.org> Dear ALAC members It has been suggested that we propose Marita's email to the community as ADVICE to the Board of the community's feelings about the waiver, so that the Board has to officially respond. Earlier messages of concern about other issues about volunteer support have only been noted because they were not formal advice, even though they reflected many discussions by the At-Large community, particularly during the pandemic. If you have any concerns about this summary list, please let me know before Sunday 23.59UTC. I think it is an important issue and that we need to make sure that it is given the consideration that it deserves. I realise that any change may not happen for ICANN74 but if can address these issues for future meetings we will have achieved something at least. I look forward to a yay or nay from members about sending this as advice. Regards Maureen Marita Moll via At-Large 2:32 AM (20 hours ago) to At With apologies to former late show host David Letterman and thanks to all those who provided input, here are my top 10 reasons why this waiver is a bad idea for ICANN and for the community: 10. It is insensitive to the global community as it can be interpreted as an exportation of U.S.-based litigious culture 9. It disregards the fact that participants at ICANN meetings have always willingly and knowingly accepted personal responsibility for health issues that arise during meetings 8. It is a disincentive to attending ICANN meetings in person, thereby damaging the ability of the community to work together 7. Concerns which have arisen throughout the community about the broad scope of the waiver are not being addressed – including legal opinions warning potential participants against signing. 6. No one is taking ownership of this waiver. The Board position on it is unclear 5. There has been no general explanation to the community or any attempt seek buy-in for this waiver 4. This kind of blanket waiver could be unenforceable and in that case, serves only as intimidation 3. The waiver infringes on individual rights 2. ICANN appears to be abandoning its duty of care to the participating community who are voluntarily contributing their time and energy to fulfilling ICANN's mandate to operate as a bottom-up multistakeholder organization *Top reason why this waiver is a really bad idea:* *1. It leaves a lasting unpleasant taste in the mouths of participants contributing to ICANN's multistakeholder model -- which is presented as a source of pride and accomplishment to the internet governance community.* Marita (now signing off on this topic -- thanks for bearing with me)

info on waiver to attend ICANN74I
by Marita Moll April 29, 2022

April 29, 2022

Dear colleagues. If you are planning to attend ICANN74, please note that you will be required to sign a very broadly worded waiver that goes well beyond any issues related to the pandemic. You can read the waiver here: https://www.internetnews.me/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/ICANN-waiver.pdf Several registrars have asked that this requirement be dropped https://domainincite.com/27793-icanns-covid-19-waiver-formally-appealed. Michele Neylon, Managing Director of Blacknight Solutions, seeking legal advice on behalf of himself and staff, was advised that neither he nor his staff should sign a waiver granting ICANN blanket exclusion of liability. _https://blacknight.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/blacknight-ICANN-April-2022-Hague-waiver.pdf_ <https://blacknight.blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/blacknight-ICANN-April-2…> . It is an unsettling way to begin what was looking like a new beginning after so many hours at virtual public meetings. I have attended more public meetings in my life than I could ever count, and have never been asked to sign such an extensive waiver. I would be interested to know if others have ever encountered this. Marita Moll, ALAC rep. for NARALO
