Hi everybody,
1.
I would like to make sure we all realize we are on a rather tight
schedule if we want to ratify creation of the NARALO in San Juan. Remember that
once we have agreed on both our OP and MOU, ICANN legal has to OK the MOU (which
will take sometime) and then our MOU has to go through a 21-day public comment
period. Only then can signature by ICANN and ALSes happen. The San Juan meeting
is June 25-29, which doesn't leave us much time.
I would also appreciate that ICANN staff look at the schedule and
confirm that this it is realistic from ICANN's point of
vue.

Where are we at now?
We are discussing our Operating Principles because before we
do anything else, we need to agree on how we'll go doing this. Our schedule
calls for approval of our OP before 2007.04.27, which leaves us 2 weeks, which
also puts us before any pre-San Juan meeting, so we have to do this online. In
order to approve our OP we need to vote, thus the first action item in our
Formation Schedule (see link above) is for every certified ALS and the group of
individual users to name their 2 voting representatives and enter them at http://www.icannwiki.org/NARALO_Contacts .
This should be done before this Friday the
20th.
