Perhaps I'm missing something, but looking around the ALAC site
information about ALS is pretty lacking. Particularly, why aren't
the ALS mailing lists archives visible to non-members?

If ALS exist to support "individual Internet users' informed
participation in ICANN..." etc etc, how can they do this if the ALS
lists are closed, if we can't see how policy is made, with what
degree of support, who was involved. What are the ALS doing?

Not suggesting ALS lists should be open to non ALS members, but if
their recommendations, and "bottom up" policy represented by ALAC in
ICANN is to be taken seriously, then there should be transparency.

Thanks,
