HI Joly,

I understand your concerns, but under our current rules those are not good reasons not to approve an ALS.  It is for those reasons why we are working to draw up new metrics and new requirements for all ALSes. Until these are passed the old system is still in place. For all those interested in improving the metrics and what should be the basic requirements to become an ALS I encourage everyone to join this committee that is working to restructure what it means to be an ALS. This Task Force could use some NARALO members as only Glenn McKnight is on this task force.  The Task Force is called At-Large ALS Criteria and Expectations and can be found here.  https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+ALS+Criteria+and+Expectations+Taskforce

Best,

Judith

While I have no objections, I did ask questions earlier about identity, just because I was a little confused. Apparently RTP and NC are used interchangeably.

Then there was the website. Essentially the ISOC wp template, with not a lot else - stuff like http://www.isoc-rtp.org/homepage_slide/state-of-the-internet-in-north-carolina/

And the other public presence - the facebook page - similarly bare-boned https://www.facebook.com/isocnc/ 

To their credit I do see that last week they were a bronze sponsor of the recent NCTech4Good Conference http://www.nct4g.org/

All,

This is just a reminder that we do need to know from each of your
ALSes whether you agree or not to have the North Carolina ISOC Chapter
join NARALO as an ALS. The deadline is this Friday. They are a fairly
new ISOC Chapter and do not have much in the way of events that they
have done, but in our talks with them before they had applied to be an
ALS they seem to be committed to supporting individual Internet users'
and we think would make a good addition to NARALO. It is for this
reason that we had encouraged them to apply to be an ALS within
NARALO.  Lynden Price is the main contact and the Alternate is Cesar
Campos.

I look forward to hearing from you with any comments.  So far we have
not heard from anyone on whether we should accept this group as a  new
ALS. I am not sure how I should interpret your silence. Is it
acceptance or not. I look forward to hearing from you

Best,
Judith

HI ALSes

We are seeking Regional Advice for a new ALS, The North Carolina
Internet Society Chapter has applied to be an ALS in NARALO.  They are
a fairly new ISOC Chapter and do not have much in the way of events
that they have done, but in our talks with them before they had
applied to be an ALS they seem to be committed to supporting
individual Internet users' and we think would make a good addition to
NARALO. It is for this reason that we had encouraged them to apply to
be an ALS within NARALO.  Lynden Price is the main contact and the
Alternate is Cesar Campos.


Nathalie Peregrine has completed the due Diligence of this application
and so we are seeking regional advice.  I have attached this
application to you for your review. I would appreciate it everyone
could review this document and send me any comments or thoughts on
this new ALS by June 17.  When you write me, please state the ALS you
are representing and if you support or oppose the addition of the
North Carolina ISOC chapter to become an ALS in NARALO.   I look
forward to hearing from you.


Best,
Judith Hellerstein
NARALO Secretary
