Darlene Thompson:Congratulations to LACRALO! :)
José Arce:No, thanks Sylvia. In Beijing we will be more specific
Silvia Vivanco:on capacity building
Heidi Ullrich:+1 Holly
Heidi Ullrich:You can see that the RALOs have started several new initatives that all could learn from
Wolf Ludwig:Sorry but Outreach and CB are two separate isues!
Heidi Ullrich:There will be also new capacity building initatives from ICANN that will be discussed in Beijing
Silvia Vivanco:Yes, all the RALOs have initiatives for capacity building in one way or another
Darlene Thompson:No, capacity building is quite different
Sylvia Herlein:this project is more INREACH
Sylvia Herlein:in LACRALO
Wolf Ludwig:Yes, Silvia, I think it's closer to IN-reach.
Oksana Prykhodko:In-Reach and OUT-Reach are relaterd for me to linguistic problems
Oksana Prykhodko:Russian-speaking culture against English speaking culture its about new Dubai digital Wall(
Silvia Vivanco:The AFRALO page
Silvia Vivanco:above
Heidi Ullrich:Thanks, Darlene
Silvia Vivanco:It could be used more regularly
Heidi Ullrich:The offer of a wiki page was made for ALSes that don't have web/wiki pages of their own.
Heidi Ullrich:Just putting a link to their ALS'es webpage is a great idea!
Sylvia Herlein:@ Oksana, not necessarily, is more like knowledgeable about ICANN world Icann for inside and outside our Ralos
Wolf Ludwig:Come on, Oksana, the WCIT issue is a political, the language question a cultural one!
Darlene Thompson:I think that's great. We need more cross-participation between the Fellowship program and our own cpaacity building programs
Sylvia Herlein:agreed
Darlene Thompson:I think that's a good idea
Silvia Vivanco:The issue came up in the ASO-AC Chairs in Prague and San Jose and it was suggested
Heidi Ullrich:@Darlene, I didn't get what you suggested
Heidi Ullrich:Was there some homework you wanted the RALO leaders to do?
Heidi Ullrich:Thanks!
Wolf Ludwig:MS meeting outcome' Doesn't say much to me?
Heidi Ullrich:Maybe next steps?
Wolf Ludwig:The Summit only as a *preliminary* meeting!
Heidi Ullrich:Wolf, the roundtable is only called Multistakeholder as there will be people from the various groups
Heidi Ullrich:the roundtable has two themes:
Heidi Ullrich:Theme: New gTLDs and Implications for the Asian-Australasian-Pacific Region
Heidi Ullrich:Theme: Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) and Implications for the Asian-Australasian-Pacific region.
Oksana Prykhodko:I would like to repeat once again that in Russian the concept of multistakehoderism is nearly absent(
Darlene Thompson:Interesting Oksana
Darlene Thompson:I think that talking about CB is important - as Wolf says, a brief briefing on best practices. Then each region can use what it chooses to. Yes, Wolf - not too long
Heidi Ullrich:There will be a meeting of the Capacity Building WG on Monday in Beijing.
Oksana Prykhodko:I am out of call(
