Gisella Gruber-White:1638 Lutz Donnerhacke:tnx Gisella Gruber-White:Lutz - we are happy to dial-out to you if necessary Gisella Gruber-White:Lutz has joined the call Heidi Ullrich:Thank you , Wolf. We have received the regional advice for TaC. avri:disapproaval symbol is thumbs down. Heidi Ullrich:Gute Nacht! avri:i mean red x. thinking of a diffeent system. Olivier Crepin-Leblond:actually the icons differ from version of Adobe Connect server. Olivier Crepin-Leblond:The current version is tick & cross avri:oh, you mean each clinet sees a different symbology? Olivier Crepin-Leblond:not sure if it's the client or the server. Do you see thumbs or ticks & crosses? avri:ticks and crosses. it was my faulty recollection. was on the other kind of system earlier this week for some other meeting. Olivier Crepin-Leblond:so that's what I have noticed - some AC rooms have thumbs up & down and some have ticks & crosses CHRISTOPHER WILKINSON:Bill is coming over, unintelligible. Bill Drake:Sorry Chris, I am persistently unintelligible avri:Not perhaps caused, but once a window is openned, it is never completely closed again. Perhaps not causation as it takes more than one open window, but we went to Tunisia and Egypt and both are more open now. Gisella Gruber-White:Sebastien Bachollet has joined the call avri:i did, it was unremarkable. Sebastien:Thanks Gisella Gruber-White:Please note recording, transcript and presentation are available at: http://gnso.icann.org/calendar/#oct Olivier Crepin-Leblond:can whoever is turning hands into microphones please not do that? avri:as i said, i particpated in the webinar, and it was rather unremarkable. not really worth alot of anybody's time. Gisella Gruber-White:It was a Policy update with no specific agenda Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Oksana - inactive ALSes was the RALO secretariats meeting, not the Policy Webinar from ICANN policy team Yrjo Lansipuro:I agree with Avri. I think we have to go to Azerbaijan to support whatever forces there are for Internet freedom. It may not lead to anything right now, but like in Tunisia, we might see some change in the long run avri:In tubnis, we and Eu Parliamentarians joined the Tunisian HR activists in the streets. That was importnat. Siranush Vardanyan:unfortunately, even if Azerbaijan promised to provide security to all, the latest events with different sport championships there, and particularly boxing championship showed that Armenians are always in trouble there (people there met our boxers on the ring with stones and noone could stop that), so, in practice, there is no security even if it is under UN auspices. So, maybe it is worthy to go there, but not for Armenians. Siranush Vardanyan:just a remark to the general discussion on this topic Heidi Ullrich:At-Large Workspace for Dakar: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/Dakar+Meeting+-+23-28+October+ 2011-+At-Large+Meetings+Workspace Heidi Ullrich:Main Meeting Schedule: http://dakar42.icann.org/full-schedule avri:Well I notice the Board is keeping the next CEO choice totally within the Board. Do they really care about other people's opinions? avri:Or is it like last time, just collect opinions for show, but then do their own thing in secret. Sebastien:Thanks Heidi Ullrich:The FR and ES translations of the At-Large meetings are currently being posted on the At-Large link above. Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Yes Yjrö -- please bring it up in Dakar Wolf Ludwig:Can you make a draft or the letter to the Board available, Yrjö? Oksana Prykhodko:I am sorry for my problems with Internet Siranush Vardanyan:can you dial out me again, my call was disconnected Bill Drake:There is a NCSG meeting starting in three minutes so I will have to drop off as scheduled. Bye all Yrjo Lansipuro:Olivier, Wolf - Of course. The letter as signed by ten people concerned about the selection of the new CEO has been sent to Steve, and is there on a number of blogsites.
