Hi Vittorio,
I think there is principle agreement among us (EURALOs) and the US NGOs (NARALOS) that the main goal is / remains "no governmental oversight at all" by no government at ICANN. We are now just working on some preliminary statements bringing the CO-statement into this context again. There are interesting discussions going on here, whether the proclaimed independence is "premature *at the moment*" as long as ICANN is still in an transition process and nobody knows exactly which direction ICANN will presumably take in the future.
Well, ISOC Italy submitted its own comments to the JPA review consultation several days ago:
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/domainname/jpacomments2007/jpacomment_028.p...
They were developed by the President of the association after a discussion among all the members. The document clearly states that we support ICANN's assessment that the conditions have been met and the JPA should now be terminated. So we could not sign on to any document stating anything different, and we would see any other position taken by EURALO or by the ALAC, without recognizing the lack of consensus in the community, as highly inappropriate.
On the other hand, thank you for raising the flag on this list. I've not seen the ALAC request comments by the ALSes on this matter, and this is really unacceptable.
