Dear all, First, I fully support Carlton's statements. Language proficiency should not be a criteria for selecting a replacement for Humberto for the ICANN Singapore meeting. Regarding the selection of a replacement, I would like to suggest that we consider Aida Noblia. She has been reading and making several contributions to At-Large and LACRALO issues and can benefit from participating in the ICANN meeting. In the event that we are not able to reach a consensus on a replacement, it should be noted that Fatima Cambronero, Vanda Scartezini and Leon Sanchez are attending the ICANN meeting in Singapore. I am sure that any of them will be able to work with the chair in Humberto's absence.

FWIW, LACRALO may NOT make that language condition to this request. It is inherently discriminatory and does not advance LACRALO interests.
Let the record show that unless it is removed I shall object in principle and advise all Caribbean ALS to do the same.

Dear all,
Staff Translation of message just sent by LACRALO's Chair:
============================================================================================================= Dear all
Constituency Travel has informed us that it is possible to send a traveler to fill Humberto's travel slot to Singapore. As I suggested yesterday in our monthly call, I would like to suggest Carlos Aguirre. He can help us to organize meetings F2F with possible speakers for our Capacity building events. Carlos is in charge of LACRALO capacity building activities.
If you would like to propose another LACRALO member, the only condition would be that the person be able to speak EN and ES and that he/she does not have visa requirements/issues for Singapore.
Deadline: Thursday 22 at 23 UTC.
Kind regards,
Alberto Soto
