Gisella Gruber-White:Welcome to the At-Large Regional Secretariats call on Thursday 9 June 2011
Wolf Ludwig:Hello everybody
Oksana Prykhodko:Greetings!
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Hi, All, what's the conference Id when calling in ?
Seth Greene:Hi, everyone. The ID number is the usual 1638.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:1638 number worked for me
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Didn't work, but trying again
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:worked in
Wolf Ludwig:I think we should start now - even without Apralo ...
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:https://spreadsheets.google.com/a/ttcsweb.org/pub?key=tvC1Ww7UfZU00CId1aqjvkQ&output=html
Wolf Ludwig:Haven't we done this before?
Darlene Thompson:Excellent point, Olivier
Oksana Prykhodko:Thank you very much, Olivier!
Wolf Ludwig:But what about when they still exist - like the Slovenian Consumer org. - and never responded since they were certified in 2007?
Darlene Thompson:Also, often its just one person in the org that was interested in ICANN (like Consumer WebWatch) and that person moves on.
Oksana Prykhodko:May be regional IGFs are the best place to review if this one ALAS exists or not
Darlene Thompson:Most of our ALSs are not involved in IGF
Oksana Prykhodko:Yes, but there may be other participants from their countries, which know aout them
Darlene Thompson:Next question: Who keeps track of whether they have participated on the list for a year (or for however long)? Does ICANN Staff have those figures?
Oksana Prykhodko:It's only about unexisting ALSs
Darlene Thompson:No, its also about ALSs that do not participate
Darlene Thompson:In NARALO anyways
Oksana Prykhodko:I understand your concern, but it seems to me that regional IGFs can help also to understand, WHY existing ALS does not participate
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:I don't think we need to give solutions today - we just need to structure the discussion in Singapore. But this is a good discussion.
Wolf Ludwig:I generally know who participates and to what extend and who does not.
Darlene Thompson:Yes very much so, Olivier!
Oksana Prykhodko:Fully support Olivier!
Wolf Ludwig:@Oksana: participation at national or regional IGFs can only be ONE criteria for participation!
Darlene Thompson:@Wolf: That wouldn't work for our region as none of our ALSs participate in our regional IGF
Wolf Ludwig:Agree Darlene - this may differ from region to region.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:There is a already one tool which Thomas Narten runs, which does posting statistics. This provides a weekly list of people who has posted
Oksana Prykhodko:@Wolf - it's not about criteria. For example, Ukrainian Internet asoociation just yesterday asked me what is its status now is in EurALO - they did not receive any official confirmation of their accepting
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:This information could be piped into another tool which links posters to ALSes and enters the results into a table. Just an example.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Oksana - that's because it is still pending - with an ALAC vote starting end of this week
Wolf Ludwig:@Oksana:: The Ukrainian ALS applicants are still due for an ALAC decision.
Oksana Prykhodko:@Olivier, @Wolf OK, thank you. I will let them know
Wolf Ludwig:Good idea!
Gisella Gruber-White:Noted
Darlene Thompson:In regards to policy discussions - almost all of NARALOs conversations are about policy
Darlene Thompson:Yes, Dev, Danny mentioned that
Oksana Prykhodko:Very good idea to publish EurALO brochure in Russian
Gisella Gruber-White:Charles Mok is on the call - he joined 15min ago
Wolf Ludwig:Agree on this point as well!
Darlene Thompson:What is this discussion point about?
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:I am sorry I need to go for my next call.
Darlene Thompson:Interesting but I don't think it would fly in NA
Wolf Ludwig:Would be rather difficult at EURALO as well ...
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:gotta go. Bye.
Darlene Thompson:Bye Olivier!
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Take care, Olivier!
Wolf Ludwig:Bye Olivier
Darlene Thompson:Who would be the audience? Nobody in NARALO would attend!
Oksana Prykhodko:take a safe trip to Singapore!
Darlene Thompson:Too much process - not enough policy
Charles Mok:I finally got into the chat room. I have been listening in on the calll for the last half hour. Sorry I was late coming in because of a mistake abt the time. Apologies again.
Oksana Prykhodko:@Wolf Can I participate in this meeting?
Oksana Prykhodko:Thank you!
Wolf Ludwig:Yes, anybody can participate in this meeting!
Darlene Thompson:Looking forward to seeing everybody too!
Wolf Ludwig:Thanks a lot DEV for charing and all for participating - Bye!
Oksana Prykhodko:Me too! bye, thanks a lot!
