RSVP deadline irrelevant/changed?
Given the amount of on-list discussion regarding whether to have a face-to-face meeting and if so, where and when to have such a meeting, I'd like to suggest to staff that the "April 15" deadline for indicating travel needs -- in an invitation sent April 10 -- is not plausible. Can you please assure the NA list that if there is to be a meeting someplace, failure to respond by the 15th does not waive ICANN travel funding?

So reassured. Jacob had a count of who had voted for a meeting...I think it was 7/12 ALSes plus 2 ALS applicants but then consensus seemed to have been achieved around a teleconference this coming week. Then Robert today sent an email with strong suggestions for moving the meeting to Montreal. So a final decision should be made in the next few days if you want to meet in the beginning of May, as time will be short there. I'd suggest by the middle/end of this week, the group should decide on place and time for a f2f meeting before San Juan. So far you have the Yonkers option and the Montreal option for venue.

Even conference calls need a little advance notice and planning. We need to have some clarity on how and when we have consensus or agreement on what next. Also, need clarity on who has standing on anything. As an applicant organization, I frequently don't know what to say... (as a result of that standing). -MM On 4/15/07, Jacqueline A.

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 have updated our formation schedule at http://www.icannwiki.org/The_North_American_Regional_At-Large_Organizati on . Please do take a look at it. This will give you an idea of what's ahead of us. I would also appreciate that ICANN staff look at the schedule and confirm that this it is realistic from ICANN's point of vue. 2. 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. _________________________________________ Luc Faubert Conseiller en gouvernance TI et en gestion du changement / IT governance and change management consulting +1 514 236 5129 www.LucFaubert.com <http://www.lucfaubert.com/> www.LucFaubert.com/blog www.isoc.qc.ca <http://www.isoc.qc.ca/> www.ccig.ca <http://www.ccig.ca/> www.maillons.qc.ca <http://www.maillons.qc.ca/>

Luc, You are pushing the process just to meet an artifically imposed deadline. This is irresponsible. There are some ALSs that aren't even involved in the current process... has anyone even bothered to contact them, or tried to bring them up to speed, or asked them for their views?

Danny, What would be a "naturally" imposed deadline as opposed to an "artificially" opposed one? As for involving all of the community, I think that would be great. Nonetheless, judging from the recent activity on the list, I notice that there is certainly more participation than ever before. Do you know who's missing from the list? Maybe you could contact them? Concerning my involvement, I'm just one rep from one ALs trying to help. If we can achieve rough consensus on the fact that I should not be trying to help, then I will stop trying. Otherwise, wouldn't we be better served by concentrating on the many tasks at hand and focusing on what positive contributions we can make to the process? Also, on 04.11 you mentioned you found parag. 5 of our OP "totally unacceptable" and I asked you "What changes to our OP would satisfy you?". You haven't answered my question.

What would be a "naturally" imposed deadline as opposed to an "artificially" opposed one?
I'd say it's one where there is a significant disadvantage to missing the deadline. The ICANN board meets at least once a month by phone, and could approve an MOU at any of those meetings. The only advantage to signing an MOU at San Juan is to have a photo-op with Vint, which I personally do not find a compelling reason to rush. If we were to do it a month or two later, the photo-op could be at a later meeting. On the other hand, all current and future North American at-large users will have to live with whatever organizational rules we set up for an NARLO, so I would greatly prefer to do it right than to do it fast. It is quite possible that if people go to San Juan, you will find from talking to people outside the NARALO* that there are things you'd want in the organizing documents that hadn't occurred to you before. Regards, John Levine, johnl@iecc.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Information Superhighwayman wanna-be, http://www.johnlevine.com, ex-Mayor "More Wiener schnitzel, please", said Tom, revealingly. * - that is, people who would not have attended the proposed NA-only meetings in Vancouver or Yonkers or wherever
On the proposed schedule, I don't think we have any deadlines. What I saw in Luc's message were some realistic dates for us to target if we want to have this process completed by San Juan. If there were a reason to wait, we should wait, but all I've see on the list is support for the current draft set of operating principles, with the occasional helpful and non-controversial amendment. We seem to have a disagreement on the level of accountability we should seek in the MOU. We should have a discussion about that on the list and in person, when we meet or talk, but the draft MOU shouldn't stand in the way of us adopting the Operating Procedures, which, as I read the group, is generally agreed. We'll need to formally send these to the official point of contact for each ALS for an up or down vote, but at this point, I will be surprised if we get different feedback from the formal ratification vote than we've heard here on this list. As far as what prospective ALSs have to say, I believe all prospective ALSs have access to this list. If they have strong feelings against the current draft of the Operating Procedures, I hope we hear from them. Bret
Well, at least SOMEBODY is trying to move things forward! I don't care if its an "artificial" deadline or not. Sometimes you just need some kind of a deadline for people to move on stuff. Gads, this is the very last RALO to be formed. It seems that things NEED to be moved forward. Danny, as for your comment about ALSs that aren't involved in the current process, do you mean to say that there are North American ALSs out there that are not on this list? If they are on this list then they are "involved" in my mind - they can see all of the e-mails. D Darlene A.

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 have updated our formation schedule at HYPERLINK
"http://www.icannwiki.org/The_North_American_Regional_At-Large_Organizat ion"
http://www.icannwiki.org/The_North_American_Regional_At-Large_Organizati on

I would also appreciate that ICANN staff look at the schedule and confirm that this it is realistic from ICANN's point of vue.

Good point. I think this goes back to when it took a year or so to get certified as an ALS, it seemed to me that the IPT gave up the last time I spoke to anyone there. I've personally tried to contact them through email and phone (I hesitate to just drop by uninvited, though their office is 2 blocks from where I teach). The originator of their ALS is no longer with the firm, as I'm told. I've invited his associate to meet with me on a few occasions, but we never got together. If y'all would like I could put some additional effort into getting in touch with someone, as I do know how to find them. -Randy Glass A@L On 4/17/07, Danny Younger <dannyyounger@yahoo.com> wrote:

I've sent a mail to both these orgs yesterday asking them if they're interested in participating and providing the links to both our lists. Let's see if they answer. Will keep you posted.

The originator of their ALS is no longer with the firm, as I'm told. I've invited his associate to meet with me on a few occasions, but we never got together. If y'all would like I could put some additional effort into getting in touch with someone, as I do know how to find them. -Randy Glass A@L On 4/17/07, Danny Younger <dannyyounger@yahoo.com> wrote: The mere fact that an organization is on a list doesn't imply that that they are participating.

I have only had the opportunity to give this a once-over. Let's try to make it happen for San Juan, I'll look it over more in-depth. Thanks! Randy Glass A@L On 4/16/07, Luc Faubert <LFaubert@conceptum.ca> wrote:
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 have updated our formation schedule at http://www.icannwiki.org/The_North_American_Regional_At-Large_Organization . Please do take a look at it. This will give you an idea of what's ahead of us.
I would also appreciate that ICANN staff look at the schedule and confirm that this it is realistic from ICANN's point of vue.
2. 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.

Well, as everybody know, I'm in favour of the f2f meeting. I would also be in favour of the Montreal venue for all of the reasons that Robert mentioned as well as one additional: it will be a lot easier to arrange for French translations in Montreal than in Yonkers (not to mention that it will cut a full day off of my travel time).

So reassured. Jacob had a count of who had voted for a meeting...I think it was 7/12 ALSes plus 2 ALS applicants but then consensus seemed to have been achieved around a teleconference this coming week. Then Robert today sent an email with strong suggestions for moving the meeting to Montreal. So a final decision should be made in the next few days if you want to meet in the beginning of May, as time will be short there. I'd suggest by the middle/end of this week, the group should decide on place and time for a f2f meeting before San Juan. So far you have the Yonkers option and the Montreal option for venue.

Given the amount of on-list discussion regarding whether to have a face-to-face meeting and if so, where and when to have such a meeting, I'd like to suggest to staff that the "April 15" deadline for indicating travel needs -- in an invitation sent April 10 -- is not plausible. Can you please assure the NA list that if there is to be a meeting someplace, failure to respond by the 15th does not waive ICANN travel funding?
