Step down Jeanette Hofmann
by Wolf Ludwig Oct. 24, 2008

Oct. 24, 2008

Hello, as Jeanette has no access to this list since some time, she asked me to forward the following message to you: ___ Hi, this is to let you know that I step down as a Euralo board member and as deputy chair. As you may have noticed, I havn't been effective in this position. This may reflect the fact that I couldn't really identify with Euralo's structure and mode of operation. I will therefore also leave Euralo. Good luck to you all, jeanette ____ I personally regret Jeanette's decision and wish her good luck in return.

Last call: Summit Questionnaire – to be returned ASAP
by Wolf Ludwig Oct. 6, 2008

Oct. 6, 2008

Hi all, may be some of you remember that there was a Questionnaire on the User’s Summit agenda setting circulated by the Staff in June this year (just before our last General Assembly in Paris). Some of the ALSes who were present in Paris completed and returned the Questionnaire there – others did it in the weeks after Paris. The Questionnaire is a very important tool to prepare the ICANN User Summit which is supposed to happen at the beginning of next year (February 09) in Mexico via a bottom-up approach. And the more feed-back we will get from our members/ALSes the better the agenda setting and conduct of the Summit can be prepared and organised by the Summit working group. As we know from a first assessment of the “Questionnaires returned” submitted by the Staff, only about half of the European ALSes participated and expressed their preferences and ideas so far –- what shows only part of the picture and user concerns. I would like to remind you that we need a far more comprehensive and reliable result of this survey! Therefore the Summit-WG decided at its last Conf.call to extend the DEADLINE for the return of the Questionnaires UNTIL Wednesday 22nd October, 2008. Please note that ALSes who do not participate in this survey / submit their Questionnaire will NOT be invited to the User’s Summit / ATLAS and won’t get travel funding for Mexico! It is still the aim of the Summit-WG to have as many ALSes as possible in Mexico and to assure a participation what can be called “representative”. Therefore please take a couple of minutes (10 min. max) to fill in the Questionnaire (attached again) and return it ASAP. Thanks for your support und best regards, Wolf comunica-ch phone +41 79 204 83 87 Skype: Wolf-Ludwig www.comunica-ch.net Digitale Allemd http://blog.allmend.ch - EURALO https://st.icann.org/euralo/index.cgi?euralo_icann_at_large_europe
