WHERE IS PARK SUITE - 11AM
by Garth Bruen June 24, 2014

June 24, 2014

All, The easiest explanation is that it is directly above the hotel bar. This is the Mezzanine level on the hotel side of the hotel, not the conference side. There are a few ways to get here: The silver elevators that go to the East wing of the hotel will take you to the Mezzanine. The stairs and elevator that take us down to Windsor will take you up to Park. Meeting starts at 11:00. I know some of you may be at the newcomers, which is important. Our NARALO meeting is probably more important since it is not repeated. This is a two-hour meeting. The first hour is NARALO business. The second hour is for BIG IDEAS. If you can only make part of the meeting choose appropriately! -Garth -----Original Message----- From: Garth Bruen [mailto:gbruen@knujon.com] Sent: Monday, June 23, 2014 5:27 PM To: info(a)nativepublicmedia.org; Garth Graham (garth.graham(a)telus.net) Loris Taylor <loristaylor1(a)icloud.com> (loristaylor1(a)icloud.com) 'Evan Leibovitch'; Glenn McKnight (mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com) 'Eduardo Diaz'; Chris Parsons (christopher(a)christopher-parsons.com) Yubelkys Montalvo Carrión (yumontalvo(a)suagm.edu) 'Ognian Mitev'; 'Alan Greenberg'; Allan Skuce (a.skuce(a)avpbc.com) 'Thomas Lowenhaupt'; 'Seth M Reiss'; Sarah Alkire (skalkire(a)uw.edu) 'scott(a)ss.org'; 'Dana Perry'; Konstantin Kalaitzidis (konstant2500(a)gmail.com) Louis.Houle(a)isocquebec.org; 'Neil Schwartzman (neil(a)cauce.org)'; 'Murray McKercher (murraymckercher(a)gmail.com)'; 'RJ Glass'; Judith Hellerstein (judith(a)jhellerstein.com) Cc: na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org; ICANN At-Large Staff (staff(a)atlarge.icann.org) ocl(a)gih.com; Robert Castonguay (robert.castonguay(a)gmail.com) 'Peter Knight' Subject: NARALO General Assembly - Tuesday 11AM UTC Park Suite Hello NARALO'ers, Folks, this our critical in-person meeting in London.

Welcome to ICANN At-Large!
by Nathalie Peregrine June 13, 2014

June 13, 2014

Dear Judith, ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that (188) Capital Area Globetrotters been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS). The ALAC greatly appreciates your group's interest in involving individual users in ICANN and looks forward to working with you and your colleagues. The purpose of ALS certification is to recognize that your organization meets the necessary criteria to involve individual Internet users at the local or issue level in ICANN activities, and that your organization will support its individual members' informed participation in ICANN efforts that affect end-users. The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your organization, other ALS, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated. We would like to offer some initial tools to help your organization keep its members informed (about significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development efforts) and engaged in activities of interest: - Point of Contact for your Organisation: Please send an email to <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> identifying the names and email addresses of one or two individuals who will be the point of contact for information and correspondence regarding ICANN At-Large. If this changes, please let us know. - At Large Mailing Lists. There are many At Large email lists, for each region; you can sign up for them and manage your subscriptions at: <http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo> http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo . The points of contact you identify will automatically be added to your region's list just for accredited ALSes to discuss regional issues and to the mailing list for Staff announcements (only Staff can post messages to that list); you are invited to join others as you wish. - ALS information. Information about your organization will be shared with the At-Large community to enable individuals interested in your group's activities to contact you, and to encourage cooperation with other groups interested in ICANN activities in your geographic region. Please complete and email the form at the bottom of this note to <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>. - ALAC website. The ALAC website ( <http://www.atlarge.icann.org> www.atlarge.icann.org<http://www.atlarge.icann.org>) is a good source for ICANN news and information of interest to individual Internet users. We encourage you to provide your members with a link. The ALAC relies on volunteers to translate information into multiple languages. Translations of documents on the website are welcome and should be sent to <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>. - At-Large Regional Websites. Regional wiki webpages also have been created to distribute information (including in local languages) on activities, events and issues of particular interest to people in each region. These are maintained by the community. They are: African Region: <http://www.afralo.org> www.afralo.org<http://www.afralo.org> Asia/Australia/Pacific Region: <http://www.apralo.org> www.apralo.org<http://www.apralo.org> European Region: <http://www.euralo.org> www.euralo.org<http://www.euralo.org> Latin America/Caribbean Region: <http://www.lacralo.org> www.lacralo.org<http://www.lacralo.org> North American Region: <http://www.naralo.org> www.naralo.org<http://www.naralo.org> We have included an ALS Starter Kit that includes key information on ALAC and At-Large communication tools. We have also included the Beginners Guide to Participating in At-Large which explains the organization of the At-Large community and how to participate in its activities. We look forward to working with you and your organization's members to advance individual Internet users' interests within ICANN. If you have any questions, or need additional information, please contact us at <mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org> staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>.
