I thought the wider At-Large world would be keen to hear the good news from Asia today. Congratulations to the AP At-Large Community :) It was great to meet you all and I look forward to helping to facilitate your making a difference for a long time to come :) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Izumi AIZU <iza@anr.org> Date: 28-Feb-2007 22:57 Subject: [APAC-Discuss] AP-RALO completed MoU and OP To: Interim ALAC <alac@icann.org>, Asia-Pacific Discuss < apac-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Dear all, I would like to take this opportunity to report that AP RALO formation meeting here in Bali during APRICOt took place today, and I am pleased to share that we have completed most of the tasks for the formation, we reached the consensus on Draft MoU with ICANN, and also on Operating Principles. 12 ALS representative out of 13 gathered here and we put our initiating signatures to the documents, to be submitted to the ICANN Board. We could not complete the selection of new ALAC members and officers, but agreed with the selection schedule, including the nomination starting shortly, for a week, etc. The official announcment should come any time soon together with the minutes of our meeting. As one of "interim" members of ALAC together with Ms. Hong Xue from AP region, I personally feel greatful to all the support and active involvement of all ALS members here in our region, as well as staff support, and also all the friendly advices and suport from larger ALAC friends in other regions and othe ICANN community memebrs. Nom-com designated Siavash did the great job of charing the session of the entire day. Special thanks to Siavash! Well, the real tasks will be still there, and not easy, but I hope we will eventually make rational and meaningful steps to bring the voices of individual users in this region to the ICANN policy process. izumi _______________________________________________ APAC-Discuss mailing list APAC-Discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/apac-discuss_atlarge-lists.i... -- -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart PO Box 32160 London N4 2XY United Kingdom UK Tel: +44 (20) 8800-1011 USA Tel: +1 (202) 657-5460 Fax: +44 (20) 7681-3135 mobile: +44 (7774) 932798 Win IM: ashtonhart@hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart@mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart
