Many thanks Wendy for your feedback :)

One clarification that is worth noting, the only SocialText Wiki which is currently still private is the one for the ALAC - I will be happy to make it publicly accessible if the Committee wishes. Certainly there is nothing confidential that I can see there. If the community wonders why it is private, it might be useful to know that it is really a legacy of when that server itself was only accessible if you had a userid/password, which has changed in the last few weeks, rather than anything else.

First off, thanks very much to Nick for finally helping us to get ALAC
communications under our control and for tracking down ALS contacts to
add to lists.  Now, though, we have an embarrassment of riches -- so
many lists that it's hard to know where to send and hard for the
recipients to continue the discussion because they're fragmented among
many one-way lists.

I propose the following for the lists @atlarge-lists.icann.org:

alac -- public archive, open membership, list for general ALAC business.
Open for posting to any interested party (including the memberships of
*-Discuss and *-ALS).

alac-internal -- ALAC members only, no public archive, LIMITED use
(e.g., what time's the conference call)

regional lists -- at the option of regions' ALSs and individuals, for
discussion of region-specific business.  Publicly archived; open or
closed at regions' option. For NA, I propose consolidation down to
NA-Discuss, open membership.


Finally, on the wikis, I propose using ICANNwiki exclusively, rather
than the closed, publicly invisible Socialtext site.

As the ALAC is supposed to represent the interests of the individual
Internet users, we should be holding more conversations with them!

Thanks,
--Wendy
