Dear EURALO Board, please note the following Email. Currently, the EURALO input text is: "EURALO repeatedly discussed and broadly reaffirmed that there must be one F2F GA a year to promote its community development and to encourage its members for active participation in ICANN's policy development. Like the years before, EURALO will submit a proposal to the ICANN budget process to ask for travel funding for the next EURALO meeting (GA) which will be held in conjunction with the ICANN European meeting 2012. " That's all fine, but do we have more comments about the presentations which Kurt Pritz showed in Cartagena? There are links to these PowerPoint slides on the page below. Re: how little time we have to respond. This is the first year we are dealing with a new calendar. We are asked to get involved in the process earlier than usual, which is a good thing. But this year, the ICANN AGM took place really late, in December, so the comment period fell on a time when several of us were recovering from Cartagena, and we then had the Seasonal Break and in fact many are not even back from their break yet. I expect this to be different in next year's cycle. As a reminder, last year's Draft EURALO position is shown on: https://community.icann.org/display/alacdocs/Draft+EURALO+Position+on+the+IC... This year the ICANN Strategic Plan has changed, so it is really important to hear your feedback/comments.
