As Vern in the mail from the staff, no deadline until 26 to make the last comment in the wiki. After the call of ALAC votacin start it. Envo this summary, before the monthly call da LACRALO morning so they have time to read it before the meeting. SUMMARY: 4 subgroups were conducted in which jobs were participating several representatives of our region. The purpose was: The reformulation of Reorganizaciny rules procedures. Major changes or improvements are: 1. There is a list of Definition of Terms and Acrnimos.When a acrnimos defined first and then appear in the document only abbreviations. They are in the section Terms and Definitions. Failure agree sought in this section. There are certain words that have a special meaning and we must resort to this section, They are in uppercase. 2. ADVISORY COMMITTEE AT-LARGE: Quote of the ICANN Bylaws. 5.3 EQUIPMENT ALAC Leadership (ALT by its acronym in English) is what used to be conoca as comitejecutivo or ex-comm. NO change in substance but is better defined than it was before, no explcitos powers. The President SLOS has and may delegate such powers to members of ALT or other individual members. 3.8 It inserts the word TEAM, general term that can be a committee, a working group. It creates a single set of rules that apply to all of them. 3. Individuals who have a role within ALAC.Which groups are requirements to meet one of these roles and responsibilities have if they accept that role. 4. ALAC. It places great responsibility to the President. What once was in the code of conduct are now this section. Eg. when inappropriate behavior, making qupuede President?. No new responsibilities but worded estn as clearly ascomo processes. Ie the list of distribucinpertenece to ICANN, Staff, IT, legal, who manages it, not ALAC chair. Succession of President, when not appointed a successor, eeige determined as the replacement. 5. There is a section on the responsibilities of ALAC LEADERSHIP TEAM (ALT). Expected heavy workload. There are three category of members: Chair, Vice (the president chooses if 1 or 2) and members who have no dems a specific title. The workload is expected more for the Chair, then vice dems and less for members. 6.APOINTEES, liason, representing the ALAC. In some cases not ALAC can ask about decisina take, they should know that ALAC will respond in other cases can not say for themes confidentiality. Set the rules for electing these people. 7. All durations are 1 year mandates in general. The chair once took two years, now is Customized. In last one year beginning with reeleccin the possibility of the second year if certain requirements. 8. Metrics: What was expected to do and APOINTEES MEMBERS ALAC, its obligations, and if they fail, the desafeccin. 9. ATTACHMENTS: 4 or 5. They are part of the ROPS but are more Modifying flexible for over time if be required in connection. The ROPS is adopted once all attachments and approved estn available. 10. SECTION C. The procedure by which conducts its affairs ALAC. There are four types of meetings.Allows call special meetings or urgent in a short period of time by the Chair or any member of ALAC. ICANN rules govern everything, are superior. But ALAC can take some decisions to change some rules or attachments. If the becomes very complex thing used Robert's Rules. 11. Was formalized agenda conecpto bean not done before. Are required for meetings, preferably. 12. QUORUM: 50% is the standard quorum (of current MEMBERS ALAC). It introduced a new concept for the vote to be valid MUST HAVE PARTICIPATION OF 5 regions of ALAC. As if a region decides not partiripcar, the vote is not considered valid. There are exceptions to the rule. 13. Meetings are open, Harel best to be there transcripciny documentation. The ALAC members override DEMs to talk but harlo best for everyone to be heard. 14. MOTIONS.The previous rule had motions and resolutions and they knew the difference. In these rules only get one: MOTIONS. It introduces the concept of POINT OF ORDER. What it does is stop the reunin to fix something. Ex estn not following the rules, stood the projector or someone does not know at which point of the agenda estny need aclaracin. 15. MOTIONS PROCEDURES. Are more formal. Almost not used in the meetings but if anyone believes that should take another tack reunin can apply. 16. MINUTES OF RECORDS. Now mandatory in every meeting, says mnimas what the annotations should be: who voted and option of indicating some aclaracin in votacin. Should be available at a convenient time. 17. ALAC DECISIONS: From the day one was the rule to take decisions by consensus and not by votacin as is done now.Now, the process is not much different, nothing else is called that estn votacina disagree or abstain and those who do not appear as they are taken vote for. It requires 80% of the participating so that there consensus. Consensus is more important than votacin. For votacin you need 50% and 80% consensus. It is a stronger decisin. 18. New situation. Formal vote. Exceptionally sometimes must vote instantly when a statement has to be filed. In the votacin cases modems remain open for a short period of time for MEMBERS ALAC that estn not present at the meeting or in the habitacin do. They all have a chance. Ensure participation of all members. Mentioned special cases votacin which requires formal. 19. PROXIES. You may be granted to another member when not going to be in the meeting.You can give power to vote on all the issues treated on reunino specify how you want to vote on such matters discrecin or the attorney. Opportunity is given to a member who is not reunin to be in a region that represented her. If you have conflict of interest is given to someone else. You can have up to 2 proxies per person. 20. Modification of the Rules. Following the above, it requires the 2/3, sper majority. 21. Working method: wiki, mailing list. can include any in the future. Careful not to mention some technology that does not work in some parts of the world. 22. CODE OF CONDUCT: Same as above. 23. Process for ALS and decertificarlas approve. Attachment to part of these rules. 24. SECTION D. CHOICES, CHOICES AND APOINTEES. For President there must be an election. Is more flexible for other appointees lderes of ALAC.It is established that the other four members of ALT not come from the same region that the president must be a regional balance. For apointees provides that if ALAC is happy and chosen this available and can stay in office is, as has been done by example in the SSAC. 25. CHAIR 15 remains unchanged with exceptions. Voters are ALAC MEMBERS AND CHAIRS OF RALOS 5. It agreguna rule: A candidate can not vote for himself but ensures that your region is properly represented. The RALO CHAIRS can be directed how to vote on this eleccin. Must be made by a formal decisin RALO. 26. REMOVE A MEMBER ALAC. It takes a significant majority. 27. He added that for a specified votacin can request a greater margin for votacin., but in no case should be less than specified. 28. All regions must find a way for individuals be directly represented in the regional.It is the mandate that all regions if they decide to make modifications that have many certainties not be avoided, there must be a process and it seems that no process ningn with certain sparse and that's fine also. There is a mandate of implcito incorporate individual users within the organization. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Heidi Ullrich <Heidi.Ullrich@icann.org> Date: 2013/3/20 Subject: [ALAC-Announce] IMPORTANT: Next Steps for ALAC Revised Rules of Procedure To: "alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org" < alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Cc: ICANN At-Large Staff <staff@atlarge.icann.org> Dear All, During the ALAC meeting for the final review of the revised Rules of ALAC Procedure (ROPS) That took place Tuesday, 19 March, Olivier Crpin-Leblond, Chair of the ALAC, set out the next steps for the ROPS as revised ALAC follows: 1) Short period for additional comments in writing to the calendar page of the ALAC Meeting of 19 March within 48 hours (see: https://community.icann.org/x/WpVwAg to be posted as comments to this calendar page ONLY) 2) Short period of discussion During The ALAC Meeting of 26 March; 3) Start of On-line shortly after the vote ALAC ALAC Meeting of 26 March.
