FYI --- please comment. -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: ATLAS II Recommendations Implementation Date: Fri, 7 Oct 2016 16:03:15 +0100 From: Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond <ocl@gih.com> To: ALAC Working List <alac@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Dear ALAC, as you know, the second At-Large Summit, aka ATLAS II, brought together 150 At-Large Structures to the ICANN meeting in London in June 2014. One of the outputs of that meeting was an ATLAS II Declaration, ratified by our community by acclamation and transmitted to the ICANN Board. But recommendations are one thing. Implementation of these recommendations are another. The ATLAS II Implementation Task Force picked up the Declaration, fleshed it out, coordinated action items with At-Large working groups, task forces, sub-committees, RALOs and individuals, as well as other ICANN departments, to expand the recommendations, file them and implement them. The results are very impressive: out of 43 recommendations, 34 (80%) have been addressed and implementation has taken place or is in the process of taking place. 9 (20%) are either unsuitable for implementation or require further clarification, consultation, and follow-up with relevant parties. This is all thanks to the amazing amount of work that has been furnished over the past two years by a few working groups and individuals, so kudos to them! We plan to be sending the final report on implementation of the recommendations to the Board very soon, possibly for ICANN 57 in Hyderabad. Please be so kind to therefore review the draft document on: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19sgzpi6DnDfrTjRG6_tl4dHwn1xlkIfTIQRKde0u... The ATLAS II Implementation Task Force has already reviewed this document, so once the ALAC and At-Large members are fine with it, (and the ALAC has ratified it?) the ALAC can proceed forward with transmitting it officially to the Board. Kindest regards, Olivier
