I wish to stand for re-election as ALAC representative for the North American Region. I have a very visible track record within ICANN, having served for two years as Vice-Chair of ALAC after serving for two years as NARALO's first Chair. I believe I have represented the region well, with a combination of optimism and caution (dare I say cynicism) that I believe generally reflects the conflicted view of Internet end-users towards ICANN. I believe I have played a part in At-Large's growing confidence and respect within ICANN, notably in improving working relationships with the ICANN Board and Governmental Advisory Committee, as well as the production of clear, thoughtful policy advice on a range of issues. I speak my mind when I encounter wrongs, and attempt to make decisions that are accountable and justified on what is best for the At-Large community. I believe in open and constructive engagement, having created the NARALO and later the At-Large Skype chat areas as well as creating innovative proposals for At-Large end user outreach. I hope I can again gain the support of the region to continue this work, and especially to move forward the conversation on necessary ICANN reforms being advanced by the Future Challenges Working Group which I co-founded and co-chair. In addition I will continue my ongoing work to further embed end-user needs and concerns into ICANN's corporate core, and to ensure that the issues that matter to the North American region are well represented at ALAC. - Evan On 6 July 2012 14:44, Thompson, Darlene <DThompson1(a)gov.nu.ca<mailto:DThompson1@gov.nu.ca><mailto:DThompson1@gov.nu.ca<mailto:DThompson1@gov.nu.ca>>> wrote: Hi all, Well, its "that time of year" again! As per our Rules of Procedures, the Secretariat is to issue a call for SOIs for elected positions on July 1 of each year. I was going to do this on Monday's meeting but since there seems to be confusion on that matter, I won't allow that to cause us further delays. We need to elect three positions: ALAC, Chair and Secretariat. The current ALAC seat that is now coming up for election is the one that Evan is holding. Evan has ran for one term and is eligible for a second, if he chooses to run. The Chair and Secretariat positions are elected on a year-by-year basis. Our ROP states that we are to allow a 30 day period to collect Statements of Interest for these positions during the 30 day period after this announcement. The deadline for accepting SOIs, therefore will be Aug. 5, 2012. If you are interested in any of these positions, please send your SOI to the list to be gathered. We do not have any specific format for such SOIs - people generally just state what position that they are interested in and what they might bring to the position. It is in our ROP that we are to try to choose these positions by concensus but if there is no consensus then a vote is to be called. Questions? Comments? General discussion? SOIs? Bring them on!

As staff has requested that the agenda be set at least one week before the date of the meeting, I encourage your efforts to include the region while preparing for your agenda.

I have been an active participant in NARALO for several years attending six ICANN meetings, all self-funded with the exception of two. I believe my work is directly geared towards advocacy for the Internet user at-large as well as to holding ICANN accountable and transparent. As NARALO Chair I would expand user involvement and elevate the importance of public disclosure. Research conducted by my organization and its members have resulted in unprecedented changes and discoveries with the Internet architecture, and I hope to expand this work.

second try: blank e-mail
by Beau Brendler July 9, 2012

July 9, 2012

I am told by Heidi the e-mail I sent around with the Monday meeting cancellation was, unfortunately, blank, as seems to happen frequently with my Earthlink e-mail. This is what was in the note. I am following it up from a different e-mail address here, to make sure it gets through to everyone: ============================================ Greetings NA-RALO. Due to the fact the chairman will be traveling somewhere between Atlanta and New York, and that a significant number of us have only just returned from the Prague ICANN meeting, I ask your indulgence for a postponement of Monday's NARALO meeting by one week. We will meet next Monday, July 16, for the regular teleconference at a tentative time of 19:00 UTC. I say tentative because some have expressed having a conflict at this time. If you have a conflict, please let Darlene Thompson, secretariat, know in my absence. If too many people have a conflict with this new time, we will come up with a better time for NA meetings. As it stands now, I prefer late afternoons. It would be helpful if we can find an hour that does not conflict with my children coming home from school at 3:45 pm EST, so it can't be that hour (i.e., 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. EST) on weekdays. Thanks to those of you who sent in some agenda points. This is a great help to us as we usually do not get a lot of agenda input from the region. So please try to send us any requested agenda items TWO WEEKS BEFORE the meeting. Or send them at any time so that we can put them on the agenda for the next meeting. Talk to you soon. Thanks, Beau Brendler +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ So, to be brief: I just finished a six-day productive, demanding and, yes, unpaid stint in Prague just about a week ago now, as many of us did, and I am now on vacation with my family in Atlanta, Georgia. I will be driving from Atlanta to New York on Monday, which is a somewhat recent change of plan due to circumstances involving repairs to my car. The meeting is scheduled for a time when I will be in the car, driving, and not capable of chairing a meeting. Given that a) I am the chairman of the region; b) I don't get paid to be chairman of the region and I am not accountable to ICANN for my vacation plans, unless they involve extensions of airline ticketing and travel dates around meetings, which this does not; and c) I have some operational concerns about the region at the moment, which I have been having to deal with, unfortunately, while on vacation with my family; then I ask the region's tolerance for the request to postpone the meeting for a week. I have also received complaints from a member of the region who does not like the proposed time change, so we are attempting to address that. And thanks to the region -- I am absolutely delighted at the building of the agenda. This makes the regional meetings much more productive and worthwhile for everyone. Thanks Beau -----Original Message----- From: Evan Leibovitch Sent: Jul 6, 2012 2:43 PM To: Beau Brendler Cc: na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org Subject: Re: [NA-Discuss] !POSTPONED -- NARALO TELECONFERENCE Monday, 9 July 2012 @ 19:00 UTC -- POSTPONED! This is really short notice of cancellation and the community has already helped build the agenda. What's up? - Evan
