Reminder of the ALS Survey
by Glenn McKnight April 21, 2017

April 21, 2017

Hi Folks In the effort to help build an expertise database of our NARALO membership we have been inspired by the work by EURALO who has led this effort to start building a similar pool of expertise in our community. We have a report on the progress of the survey in May to the ATLARGE LEADERSHIP community. Since we sent out the survey we have 14 ALS responses to date. Noteworthy is Native Public Media and ISOC NY who had multiple names per survey categories. We still are expecting more responses *Please complete the survey * Instructions Please review the 33 categories and add your organization and name to your self assessment categories Here is the link to the survey https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y4ZbL0ojPXDzNzZfcKg5 5P3A9erO5E4GJrmrFeorbS8/edit?usp=sharing Thanks Glenn Glenn McKnight mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com skype gmcknight twitter gmcknight 289-830 6259 .

NARALO Election Self Nomination: ALAC Representative
by John Laprise April 7, 2017

April 7, 2017

Hello everyone, I am stepping forward as a candidate for the NARALO ALAC representative position. I have been an active participant of ALAC for a number of years now including co-authoring policy positions, attending ICANN meetings, and engaging with At Large and other SO/ACs as a member of WGs and CCWGs. As NARALO's ALAC representative, my first priority would be to listen and bring your concerns and contributions to ALAC discussions. I left the private sector and academia to found a non-profit focused on serving and empowering Internet users. Serving NARALO is a continuation of my service and I humbly ask for your support. Best regards, John Laprise Founder Association of Internet Users <http://www.aiu-us.org/>

Further on the Rules of Procedure
by Gordon Chillcott April 5, 2017

April 5, 2017

I've noticed that 3.2 of the proposed ROP requires each ALS to select one "voting representative". There does not seem to be any allowance for a designated proxy in cases where the voting representative is temporarily unable to act for any reason. In my own case, for example, I am not able to attend the upcoming General Assembly and my ALS has designated another representative. Gordon Chillcott
