NARALO ALAC Election
by Thompson, Darlene July 20, 2011

July 20, 2011

Hi all, Please note that it is also time for our annual ALAC election. Please see two excerpts from our Rules of Procedure: 10. These members will serve for terms of two (2) years and may not serve more than two consecutive terms totaling more than 40 months. Each new ALAC member selected by the NARALO will be seated at the close of ICANN's annual meeting. ALAC members filling a vacancy will be seated immediately following their nomination. … 11. At least once a year, on or before the First of July, or whenever a vacancy arises, the NARALO shall issue a call for Statements of Interest from members of the North American Internet community to serve on the ALAC. The call for Statements of Interest shall be open for at least 30 days. New ALAC members will be selected and announced sufficiently in advance of ICANN's annual meeting to allow them to be seated as required by Paragraph 10. Gareth Shearman’s first full term has now come to a close. He is still qualified to serve for one more term if he chooses to stand for election. The Call for Statements of Interest is now open and will close on August 19, 2011. If anyone is interested in this position, please send your SOI to the list. An election will follow shortly after August 19, 2011. My apologies for not catching the July 1 deadline but, fortunately, we still have plenty of time before the next meeting for this election process.

agenda item for Monday's call
by Beau Brendler July 15, 2011

July 15, 2011

Danny Younger will not be able to join Monday's call. He asked that we consider the following (quoting from his e-mail with a couple of edits). I will put this item on Monday's agenda. Beau ----------------------------------- "The [draft applicant] Guidebook (section 3.3.2] calls upon the ALAC to develop a new gTLD objection vetting process. Kurt Pritz, in his comments to Congress, has stipulated that he expects this to be a "robust" process established on behalf of the public interest. My concern is that ... It took eleven and a half months just to set up the process to select an at-large director ... and there was a fair amount of confusion within some of the regions as to process considerations. Making matters worse is that we now have only around nine months within which to have the project completed. The Guidebook states: At a minimum, the process for objecting to a gTLD application will require: bottom-up development of potential objections, discussion and approval of objections at the Regional At-Large Organization (RALO) level, and a process for consideration and approval of the objection by the At-Large Advisory Committee. ... The NARALO has always taken the lead on major initiatives. Perhaps this is the time to once more take the lead to defend the public interest." -----Original Message----- >From: Marilyn Vernon <staff(a)atlarge.icann.org> >Sent: Jul 13, 2011 9:44 PM >To: "na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org" <na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org> >Cc: ICANN At-Large Staff <staff(a)atlarge.icann.org> >Subject: [NA-Discuss] REMINDER: NARALO TELECONFERENCE - Monday, 18 July 19:00 UTC > >Dear All, > >The next NARALO teleconference is scheduled for Monday, 18 July 2011 at >19:00 UTC. > >The agenda (to be updated) and call details can be found at: >https://community.icann.org/x/HIAUAQ > >If you require a dial-out please contact At-Large staff at: >staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>. > >-- >Regards, > >Heidi Ullrich, Gisella Gruber-White, Seth Greene, Marilyn Vernon, Matt >Ashtiani >ICANN At-Large Staff > > >------ >NA-Discuss mailing list >NA-Discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org >https://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/na-discuss > >Visit the NARALO online at http://www.naralo.org >------
