Cintra Sooknanan:seems as if everyone is at/following IGF
JJS:Gisella, someone's trying to call my mobile 'phone. If it's the operator for the ALAC conference, could you ask that they call instead +862167750658 as requested? thanks.
JJS:Cintra, IGF: yes, except those who did not manage to have their flight and accommodation taken care of by ICANN...
JJS:Gisella, operator just called proper number, but no one spoke...
CLO:Hi JJS Hi Cintra

Gisella Gruber-White:will you be joining the aduio bridge and/or would you like a dial-out?
Cintra Sooknanan:Hi Titi, do we know eachother from Next Gen?

Alan Greenberg:Sorry for being late. Dialing in now.
Heidi Ullrich 2:I'm here, Gisella!
CLO:are our ACZ rooms for this meeting set uo for audio Out? so Titi can listne oin broadcast?
CLO:ergh sorry about my typos
Titi:I don't think it is
Gisella Gruber-White:Dave Kissoondoyal sends his apology
CLO:is this just an issue for this call today during IGF Titi or a more general issue as we will have to fix
Gisella Gruber-White:No audio for this AC Room
Titi:just for IGF though I think good idea to include audio out fr future meetings will help increase participation somewhat - even if no opportunity to speak
Titi:Ok Gisella. Thanks
CLO:we are just going through the action items froma last meeting atm Titi
Titi:ok
Alan Greenberg:Could we please add to Other Business the Joint WG - Consumer Choice, Competition and Innovation.
CLO:Noted Alan shall do...
CLO:both OCL & I are IN the GNSO WG (well to be confirmed WG
CLO:JJS is asking for an update on gLobal Partnerships and Heidi will ask Mandy Carver to send an update to our announce list
Alan Greenberg:Understood, but the GNSO has now formally chartered the group and ALAC needs to decide it they will jointly charter it or not (since Board request was to GNSO, ccNSO, GAC and ALAC)
CLO:So Alan did it go through as a joint or Cross Community WG or just an 'open' GNSO one :?
CLO: resolutioj was written either way IMO
Heidi Ullrich 2:Link to Global Partnership page that shows recent and upcoming meetings where Global Partnership Regional Liaisons will/have been:http://www.icann.org/en/global-partnerships/
JJS:what's an Australian "bawk" ?
Alan Greenberg:I missed a small part of that discussion but beleive that it did pass (minutes not yet posted). But resolution was to invite other SO/AC to sign on to same charter, and if none did so, it would be a GNSO olny WG (of course all WG are open to other participation).
CLO:Ahh good 'cause the Charter IS built to be A OK for a joint WG style :-)
CLO:here HERE JJS
Heidi Ullrich 2:Olivier, would you like the Chair of the Public Participation committee to speak to At-Large during the discussion on the 2012-2015 Strategic Plan in Dakar?
CLO:But ALAN this is ICANN's strat plan we have our that must interact and fit but these METRICS ares for thr ICANN strat plan
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:this could be a good option
CLO:Excellent to have JJS in this YES YES YES
Heidi Ullrich 2:That meeting will be on Tuesday in Dakar.
CLO:and for the DAKAR meeting AGENDA YES
Evan Leibovitch:@Alan: our running after metrics laid by other constituencies simply leads to having our agenda set by others.. Ie, we are led to produce advice based not on gravitas or importance but rather on volume.
Heidi Ullrich 2:Will do, Olivier.
Alan Greenberg:my understanding of what they were asking for was metrics to demonstrats how alac is reinforcing plan... And yes to JJS, we no longer need to justify our existance, but the occasional demonstration of our worth is good.
JJS:CLO, did you mean "hear, hear" ? In which case, I'm flattered. If you meant "here, here", I'm worried that maybe you were suggesting I'm completely off the mark :-)
Evan Leibovitch:The metric that counts is the extent to which we are serving OUR community, not others'
Gareth Shearman:Good comment, Evan
Gisella Gruber-White:sorry my phone mute not working
CLO:JJS you should be flattered it was a voteo of support
CLO:vote NOT Votoe
Evan Leibovitch:or veto :-)
Sebastien:I am not on the phone. Sorry to be late also. Just here if you need my inputs. From IGF.
JJS:Thanks Cheryl :-)
CLO:Noted Seb many of us either have the IGF transcript running or are listening with one ear ;-)
Heidi Ullrich 2:welcome, Ganesh!
Gisella Gruber-White:Ganesh Kumar has joined the call
Ganesh Kumar:Thank you, Sorry I was late.

Cintra Sooknanan:Parts of India for sure.. I can attest to that
CLO:yup
Evan Leibovitch:yup isn't just australian
Heidi Ullrich 2:There will likely be video streaming of our meetings in Dakar and future public meetings.

CLO:Looking at the JAS Agenda item niw as we are not quorate we will have to take the ratification online...
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:yes
CLO:OCL I'm typing here mainky to keep titi 'in the loop'
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:ok. Oh I wasn't aware that she was not on audio
Titi::-)
Titi:Have to head out in a couple fo minutes though - end of sessions here building shut down a few minutes after that
CLO:Alan is noting that the AS report does set up for some future work INCLUDING work with GAC re some aspects of terminology etc., and Government
CLO:involvement in possoboe applications
Titi:Thanks again for keeping me in the loop Cheryl
CLO:Alan is reporting on GNSO resolvong to send report to the Board and to add more comments ( perhaps) later on the Report...
Alan Greenberg:Titi, as you will learn, Cheryl is one of te few among us who can simultaneously carry on several conversations and activities in parallel.
CLO:We are discussing putting a motion for endorsement and ratififaction of the JAS report and then taking the vote online ASAP
Evan Leibovitch:given the current political tension between ICANN and governments, the GAC support (and explicit advocacy ) of the core points of the JAS group is significant. ICANN rejects this advocacy at significant risk.
JJS:interesting remark, Evan.
Evan Leibovitch:Make it strong (as cheryl says). We have neither the time nor (from what I can tell) the inclination to add comments post-approval.
CLO:Titi were still discussing JAS final report Motion will be oiut in next 24 hrs

Evan Leibovitch:sorry, don;t know how to format for AC

Evan Leibovitch:@ Cheryl -- those metrics can also be used to determine the performance of the Nominating Committee. Maybe its candidates can't be recalled but the NomCom itself should be held accountable to the community.
CLO:yes indeed Evan
