Following up to my previous email regarding Evan's proposal to have an ISOC booth at the ICANN events, and since ICANN-51 is in Los Angeles, we could combine the ISOC booth effort along with the NARALO effort -- and in both cases, as the ISOC-SFBay community At-Large Structure, we can help organize things. So who will be there from NARALO -- I plan to. -konstantin On Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at 2:10 PM, Evan Leibovitch <evan@telly.org> wrote:
I think the theme for the LA meeting will be "recovering from London". :-P
And by that I don't just mean At-Large recovering from the Summit. Initiatives started at that meeting on ICANN accountability and IANA oversight are evolving more chaotic by the day. A high level accountability working group that was supposed to be convened in London doesn't even have a structure yet, let alone people or meetings. Half of the GNSO is divided -- and way overdue -- in picking its representative to the ICANN Board. And there are rumblings of ICANN starting the wheels on a second round of gTLD applications before we know the public consequences of the current round.
But also, most of what we would have in a Showcase in LA has already been done at the Fayre in London. It's fairly certain that ICANN won't fund North American ALSs to go to LA, as the last NARALO General Assembly took place there just two weeks ago. The only funded NARALO people will be the existing five (plus whoever is elected to replace them in the coming term). Given that vastly reduced level of in-person participation, what kind of a showcase would be possible?

I think it is a great idea. What is the theme for ICANN LA? Perhaps we can discuss the possibilities on our next NARALO call.
