Dear Colleagues, Please note the meeting conflict below. My contributions to agenda item 5.1.3 (also labeled "3.1.3") "Review of Active and Non-Active ALSes" are the mail sent on 6/13. I regret a spreadsheet capturing all of the salient details is incomplete but will be forthcoming. My contributions to agenda item 5.1.4 (also labels "3.1.4") "Overview of ALS De-accreditation Procedures" is that the criteria used can be met by a votebot (CORE in fact uses a votebot scheme, as do other organizations using email-based balloting systems), or by a single individual, and therefore renders fictional the plain sense of the 2007 MoU creating NARALO out of regional organizations meeting specific criteria and undertaking specific responsibilities and so becoming At-Large Structures comprised of one or more organizations, and Unaffiliated Individual members. A continuous scheme consisting only of the formality of testing for the existence of a "vote" from something other than an organization has the effect of making one individual styled as an At-Large Structure equal in voting to all Unaffiliated Individual members, and equal to all At-Large Structures. As individuals, as members of At-Large Structures or Unaffiliated Individual members have property interests affected by the decisions of the Board, and votes in NARALO give rise to acts which advise the Board, equity and due process issues are present in a correctable, but continuously uncorrected voting scheme. My contributions to agenda item 5.1.5 (also labels "3.1.5") "Disconnect Between "Individual Internet Users" and the reality of ALSe" is to observe that more than one currently certified At-Large Structure" appear to have fewer members than there are Unaffiliated Individual members, though the number of Unaffiliated Individual members I believe on the available information may be as few as six, not including myself as the Secretariat has again, for reasons not yet made clear, that I am not an Unaffiliated Individual member. My suggestion is that the "one vote in four" criteria for continuous certification as an ALS be replaced with a test that is organic to the 2007 MoU responsibilities of the NARALO and organic to the subsequent application and capable of discovery of material misrepresentation. This is not particularly difficult and a responsibility of Officers selected by vote. Such a test could detect persistent failures to inform and enable individual participation, the central purpose of a committee tasked to advise from the perspective of individual internet users, which the current scheme can not.
