I agree now with Carlos as I agreed when this was discussed JOS -----Mensaje original----- De: at-large-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:at-large-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] En nombre de carlos aguirre Enviado el: lunes, 15 de diciembre de 2008 09:57 p.m. Para: At-Large Worldwide; 'Danny Younger' Asunto: Re: [At-Large] [ALAC] ExecComm Mission Creep (was Re: [NA-Discuss] ALAC Mid-point consultation report - Personal comments) Dear All: I told you one month ago (see below and remember) that Ex Com issue issue needed time and a carefully treatment . And also said that I had serious concerns about the Ex Com behaviour after to be ratified (for the futures Ex Com), because in they, was summarized the power of entirely ALAC. This change is not a good thing, and my soul of lawyer say to me that was not a mistake. For that reason I asked a write rule (inside bylaws) previously. We need a long discussion about that with RALO`s , because is not a minor change. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- From: carlosaguirre62@hotmail.comTo: alan.greenberg@mcgill.ca; alac@atlarge-lists.icann.orgSubject: RE: [ALAC] Motions with respect to the Ex-ComDate: Wed, 26 Nov 2008 13:54:01 +0000 Dear All: After yesterday teleconference and having the desition to ratify the Ex Com, and to be clear, I want to say that I'm not against Ex Com, but yes with the procedure in order to ratify it, because IMHO was at least so fast and not careful. And I think we should be extremely cautious when it comes to translate it into the ALAC OP, because we need define with surgical presicion: *what are the issues on which can act?, *which are important matters?, *what are urgent matters? and * if this does not mean the concentration of decisions which correspond to ALAC? (this is my biggest concern). what will happen if the desition takes by Ex Com are not ratify by ALAC? *what happen if there are not consensus into Ex Com. and it occurs to me several others questions. I hope, we will do ok.my two cents ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- Carlos Dionisio Aguirreabogado - Sarmiento 71 - 4to. 18 Cordoba - Argentina -*54-351-424-2123 / 423-5423www.derechoytecnologia.com.arhttp://ar.ageiadensi.org
