Thanks, the operator did call me back to check if I needed to rejoin and I reconfirmed that I was dropping out to go to another meeting. I would like to note with appreciation that the teleconferencing system works very well and congratulate the ccNSO secretariat for managing it at this high level of efficiency.

Additional Council Meeting reference material
by vitech-ron Oct. 12, 2009

Oct. 12, 2009

Good morning, Councilors: I have been working with Rudi Vansnick (ALAC Liaison to the ccNSO) on a means of designing a useful relationship between ccTLDs and the ALAC ASLs (At-Large Structures). Rudi has produced a draft document outlining the project from the ALAC perspective. That document [ALAC - ALS - ccTLD Project] is attached. Locally, I have been working on an experimental outreach project based on the ccTLD .VI. A summary of that project [ccNSO - ALAC Joint Outreach Project] is also attached. Please consider these two items as reference material for the ccNSO / ALAC Liaison report to the October 13th ccNSO Council Meeting. Ron Sherwood, ccNSO / ALAC Liaison.
