I am looking into this. I do not believe that 'At-Large Advisory Group' is the same as ALAC though - it is before my time, but I believe that the advisory group is an entity that has come and gone... On 1 Oct 2007, at 00:16, Jacqueline A. Morris wrote:
According to the GAC website, the liaison to the "At Large Advisory Group" is Carlos Valdez. Same as in 2003.

If we had one before, I can ask GAC to send one again. Will send to the GAC Chair about it ASAP.

The mentioned report has a date of - sept 9, 2003 - .. Which is quite a while ago. it is a precedent we can cite, but would like something more recent.
Are there meeting meetings we can check to see if a GAC rep has shown up since then?

Sébastien,
I have mixed opinions about a formal ALAC /GAC representative exchange. Let me ask some questions to ascertain your proposal.
1. What would the strategic value be for ALAC ? 2. Would adding yet another liaison position not spread us too thin? 3. What we need it to increase our official contributions and comments to ongoing ICANN processes . Would an ALAC rep on GAC do this?
4. What would the "official process be to get an ALAC seat on the GAC". Who would need to approve the request - the GAC, the board, or a change in the ICANN bylaws.
5. What changes would be needed to the ALAC bylaws and/or rules of procedure to allow for this request.
6. What status would we want to give the GAG rep? Voting, observer?
Personally, I would prefer to have more ALAC reps on key strategic structures - such as the board - before having a token person on a GAG. Then again, I'm open to comments . Convince me otherwise..
regards
Robert

De : alac-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org [mailto:alac-bounces@atlarge-lists.icann.org] De la part de Jacqueline A. Morris Envoyé : dimanche 30 septembre 2007 16:55 À : 'At-Large Worldwide' Objet : [At-Large] ALAC Positions open for nominations 2007-2008
ELECTION CALL – nominations are now being called for the election of the Officers of the ALAC.
The following FOUR (4) Officers of the ALAC are to be elected.
1. Chair of the ALAC
2. Vice Chair (1) of the ALAC
3. Vice Chair (2) of the ALAC
4. Rapporteur
· All officers serve for a term of one year starting from the closure of an Annual General Meeting and ending at the closure of the following Annual General Meeting.
· Only members of the ALAC (or those who will meet the eligibility criteria for nominations after the closure of the Annual General Meeting in LA at the next ICANN meeting) may be nominated or self-nominate.
· Nominations are to be made by a posted message to the public ALAC list, and any nomination (that is not a self-nomination) has to be accepted by the nominee to the public ALAC list.
· The deadline for nominations to be considered for these positions is October 14th, 2007 (14 days after this message) by midnight GMT.
· An election summary of all valid nominations and the details of the actual vote will then be forwarded to this public ALAC list.
Nominations are also being called (under the aforementioned process) for the following three (3) liaison positions (please note current liaisons who continue to fulfil the eligibility are entitled to be nominated and re-elected)
1. GNSO liaison
2. ccNSO liaison
3. SSAC liaison
· Liaisons are NOT required to be a member of the ALAC (but they may be).
At the ALAC AGM appointments to Working Groups, List activity co-ordination, projects, task forces and other bodies related to ICANN will also be reaffirmed or reassigned if appropriate, as there is no requirement for such appointments to be made from members of the ALAC any person wishing to make themselves available to the ALAC for such appointment should also indicate this to the public ALAC list at this time for consideration of current appointment positions and those that may come to pass from time to time in the coming year.
Currently there are appointments requiring allocation for the following four (4) existing activities (all ALAC Working Group List activities), and it is expected additional appointments will be required to be made by the ALAC during the coming year:
1. IDNs
2. WHOIS
3. Registrant/Registrar Relations
4. IPv4 to IPv6 Liaison
Any questions can be addressed to me or to staff@alac.icann.org.
Sincerely
Jacqueline A. Morris
ALAC Chair
