Dear members of the At-Large community: Please be advised that, on 30 March 2006, ICANN posted for public comments proposed Terms of Reference detailing questions that would guide the independent review of ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee and global At-Large structures and processes <http://icann.org/announcements/announcement-2-30mar07.htm>. The public comment period will conclude on 29 April 2007. Please send comments to: <alac-review-tor@icann.org>. View comments at: <http://forum.icann.org/lists/alac-review-tor/>. ICANN's Board directed staff to post these proposed Terms of Reference for public comments, and input from the ALAC, RALOs and At-Large Structure groups is specifically requested. Recognizing that the ALAC and the global At-Large infrastructure that includes Regional At-Large Organizations and groups certified as At-Large Structures are interconnected, the Review will address all of these elements of At-Large involvement in ICANN. Review of the ALAC will be conducted in an objective way by an entity or entities independent of it, under guidance from the Board on the Review's Terms of Reference. The results of the Review shall be posted for public review and comment, and shall be considered by the Board. ICANN's bylaws require that Supporting Organisations, Councils and Advisory Committees be independently reviewed. As provided in the Bylaws, consideration by the Board includes the ability to revise the structure or operation of the ALAC by a two-thirds vote of all members. The proposed Terms of Reference include several important questions that the Board feels the Review should address. The proposed list of questions, however, are not intended to be exhaustive, particularly as the initial results of the Review may suggest related questions that should also be answered. We look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Denise Michel Vice President, Policy Development ICANN www.icann.org
