Veni Markovski:can you speak louder?
Veni Markovski:and there is an echo that ruins it
Joly MacFie:an echo on Avri
Veni Markovski:I can't hear anything
Veni Markovski:too much echo
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):too much echo from Avri
Joao Carlos Caribe:impossible to hear...
Veni Markovski:Olivier, can you please, tell her?

Narine Khachatryan:too much echo
Ron Sherwood 2:Avri cannot be heard
Heidi Ullrich:Sorry, we are trying to improve Avri's audio
Heidi Ullrich:Sorry to the ES and FR channels
Tijani BEN JEMAA:very bad for the comprehension
Evan Leibovitch:some kind of tin-can echo
Joly MacFie:I'd say mute Nigel
Joao Carlos Caribe:This could be connection by phone? It appear the usual TELECOMUNICATION low quality service, connecting to Internet HIGH quality one

nigel hickson:completelty agree with Avri; excellent points on what was good in Treaty!
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):its ok now thank you
Joly MacFie:QUESTION: What about the WSIS?
Joao Carlos Caribe:Cool! Running dow the polarized concept of Internet Cold War...
Natalia Enciso:Have to leave AC, will continue on my cel.
Evan Leibovitch:It's no surpise that ICANN looks at ITU from the outside, seeing as many of the participating countries would have ICANN functions replaced by governments.
Evan Leibovitch:Welcome, Andrés!
alberto soto:My apologies, I must retire for a work call, sorry
nigel hickson:Evan; think ICANN is beiginnig to change focus from "outside" to "inside"
Evan Leibovitch:Agreed, but that's easier said than done. Changing focus requires far more transparency and equitable participation.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Bill -- you can take a little more time. We have 90 minutes.
Avri Doria:unfortunately I committed to a 60 minute meeting as was orignally scheduled so will have to leave on the hour, but will try to pay attention to the adobe
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:This is noted, Avri. Thanks
Avri Doria:The WTSA background to the demand for a registry, which Andreas mentioned, was quite interesting. Basically as they see the guarantees of IPv6 everywhere start to sour due to the lack of global take-up, they are in trouble with their bosses for having promised IPv6 as a solution. So they want a way to get access to the 50% of IPv4 addressees that are still available in IPv4 legacy space.
Roberto:Avri, later can you elaborate more on this, maybe on the mailing lists?
Avri Doria:Roberto, sure. On which list? And on which list can I do it without getting staked as a heretic.
Roberto:ALAC has no erethics by definition
Avri Doria:Roberto: hahaha
Andres Piazza:Yes, Bill. That is right. The definition does not include the internet, and the articles (spam) does not include the Internet either... but the proposal and the intention IS ABOUT THE INTERNET.
Heidi Ullrich:Avri, staff will create a wiki page for comments. We will provide a link in a moment
Andres Piazza:Regarding the challenges that Nigel was listing, I want to help: WTPF, WSIS+10, CSTD Enhanced Cooperation, and ITU-T Study Groups 2 and 3 discussions regarding IP Adresses.
Evan Leibovitch:Question (of all speakers) to follow up on some points by Bill: At the start of the conference, ITU chair Touré promised decision-making by consensus and that the Internet would not be brought into ITRs. At the conference both those commitments were broken. Does this damage the ongoing viability and utility of the ITU? Or is the main casualty just Touré? Now there is talk in some circles of de-funding. To what extent is ITU itself threatened?
Avri Doria:Bill, it is not even certain that ICANN can particpate in WTPF
Heidi Ullrich:A discussion wiki page has been created for questions/comments: https://community.icann.org/x/4gFlAg
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):Its clear that there is need for ICANN to find a wa to participate more intimately
Avri Doria:Evan, the UN and ITU, and in fact every governmental gathering including the GAC, can do anything they want process-wise and call it anything they want. I am sure they did not follow the exact process for voting, so it wasn't a vote.
Roberto:Avri: we did in 2009, Lisboa. I was the speaker for ICANN.
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):thanks Heidi for the link
Heidi Ullrich:You are welcome.
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):Roberto , what were the achievement of ICANN's involvement then/
Avri Doria:Roberto, where you partipating as ICANn, registered as part of an ICANN delegation - or just part of another delgation or a special invite.
Bill Drake:Roberto: ICANN was asked to speak in Lisbon, but we (civil society) were told we could not
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):I hope that that ICANN community page will be utilized
Evan Leibovitch:Heidi: Do I need to repeat my question in Confluence?
Andres Piazza:@Evan: 22 countries signed ITRs in 1988, and 89 countries signed ITRs at 2012. There was more attention to the ITU than ever. The consensus was broken, true, but there was a lot of processes oriented to consensus. I would not say that ITU has now lack of legitimacy. They talked about the Internet a lot at the conference and they had a non binding resolution, but there was consensus regarding the role of the Multilateral Bodies with the Internet. The level is of discussion is rising and was better than ever. So, hard to say.
Roberto:@Bill; I understand. I was replying to Avri's message talking specifically about ICANN, not generally about civil society
Victor Ndonnang:Question: During the WCIT12 closing session, the ITU Secretary General said: “I look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead and all that can be achieved by ITU and ICANN together in a positive spirit of collaboration. So let me repeat once more, the ITU has no wish or desire to play a role in physical Internet resources such as domain names. And the work of ICANN and ITU can be and should be fully complementary.”In others words, It seems like the WCIT-12 was definitely about the ITU “controlling the Internet” but not the ITU “controlling the work of ICANN”. Is that a result of the diplomatic work of the ICANN leading team or a result of a secret arrangement between the ITU and ICANN? Can panelists please share their views or thoughts on that?
IDN:(OffTopic: Will the clarifying questions be posted publicly?)
Andres Piazza:@Victor, I can't answer that.
Heidi Ullrich:@Evan, no, the wiki page is for comments/questions and further discussion after this call.
Heidi Ullrich:or for questions that are not addresssed during this call.
Andres Piazza:This is a excelent article by article summary, BTW
Carlton Samuels:@OCL: The argument over defining 'recognised' operating agencies is A LOT deeper than the surface suggest.
Veni Markovski:Well, not "taking over", but declaring that the ITU will take it over. There's a difference. Nobody seriously believed that the ITU can increase its mandate at *this* conference. But there's PP-14 coming, so stay tuned.
Andres Piazza:@Veni +1
Roberto:@avri: official ICANN delegation, Vint could not make it, so I went. see http://www.itu.int/osg/csd/wtpf/wtpf2009/statements/
Heidi Ullrich:@IDN - the ICANN community wiki pages are public - community.icann.org
nigel hickson:Just on ICANN and WTPF; we are (I am) on Expert Group and we will be at WTPF in May; I am hoping Fadi Chehade may be able to attend start. I also hope we can discuss overall Community approach to WTPF in Beijing.
Carlton Samuels:@recognized operating agencies: Look at Article 5 and see the implications.
Andres Piazza:RE: WTPF. Paul Wilson, APCNIC's CEO is member of the experts group as well.
nigel hickson:Yes; and ISOC!
IDN:Thanks Heidi.
Andres Piazza:http://www.itu.int/md/S12-WTPF13IEG1-C-0003/en List of Experts. From my side (RIRs): 3 experts from APNIC and 2 from ARIN.
Andres Piazza:@Nigel, Right! Isoc has 2 more.
Bill Drake:ITU has ok'ed me to participate in the IEG but it turns out I have a schedule conflict. No civil society in the planning.
Bill Drake:when does this meeting end?
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:at the 1530 UTC
Bill Drake:ah
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):i have a question
Evan Leibovitch:I have a bad cold and would prefer someone else read my question.
Tijani BEN JEMAA:dropped
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:@Evan -- you can type it here if you wish
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Tijani -- let me know when you're back
Tijani BEN JEMAA:ok
Victor Ndonnang:@Andres: Thanks. To say it clearly; does ICANN really have to worry about the post-WCIT12? If yes in which points?
Evan Leibovitch:@Olivier, I typed it above.
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Gideon - are you able to speak?
Gisella Gruber-White:After Tijani.
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):no i think am on mute
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):ok
nigel hickson:can I respond please
Carlton Samuels:@Tijani: +1 - If ever an official ICANN delegation, it must be 'balanced'!
Roberto:Sorry, I had planned for 1h only, I have to leave
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Gideon - all lines have been unmuted and your microphone on Adobe Connect is unmuted as well
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:@Roberto - thanks for attending
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):i think i have a problem
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):i have lost all audio
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:possibly your mic is not connected?
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):sorry
Bill Drake:At the end of the meeting, ITU secretariat claimed that stakeholders could have spoken if they wanted to
Avri Doria:i have left the call, but can answer written questions in adobe
Victor Ndonnang:+1 @Tijani. The ITU is a member states organization. I just wonder how can ICANN have an official delagation to ITU?
Avri Doria:ISOC has an agreement, why not ICANN
Joly MacFie:Mute Nigel!
Joly MacFie::)
Juan Manuel Rojas:Sorry all, I have to go. I have another call.
nigel hickson:Avri; an issue as I noted for Board!
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):With the difference of the two blocks , what can be done to kind of have a concensus because the internet is liberalized and it has grown that way....perhaps the involvement of ITU must be clearly defined so that there s no conflict
Veni Markovski:Things are pretty simple: ITU can deal with ITC (and Internet), only if it changes the mandate, which can happen only at the Plenipot.
Veni Markovski:Dubai was just a rehearsal.
Bill Drake:Veni: ITU would say it already has lots of mandates to deal with the Internet
Bill Drake:Resolutions a go go
Carlton Samuels:@Veni on how you change the ITU mandate: +1
Andres Piazza:@Veni, Carlton +1
Bill Drake:ITU doesn't have to take over ICANN functions to affect the environment in which ICANN operates
Carlton Samuels:And might I ask, what or who constitute the 'electorate' at the Pleni?
Heidi Ullrich:Joly, your question posted on the wiki has been noted.
Victor Ndonnang:Thanks @Olivier.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:@Victro - you're welcome
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:@Voctor
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:@Victor --- third time..
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:sorry
Gideon (DotConnectAfrica):+1 VEni
Avri Doria:ITU is one of the stakeholders.
Victor Ndonnang:Thanks @Bill, @Nigel for the explanation.
Avri Doria:it is just that they are not the primary stakeholder, not the focal point for Ig
Carlton Samuels:@Bill: Hope spings eternal!
Carlton Samuels:*springs*
Heidi Ullrich:@Nigel, a question for you from Joly: There is a WSIS meeting in Paris in February 2013. Will ICANN be represented?
nigel hickson:Fine; will answer; N
Sylvia Herlein:Sorry I have to go! very interesting until now. Tks to all!
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:thanks Sylvia
Avri Doria:WSIS+10
Bill Drake:Anyone can go
Bill Drake:I have a contrary view on WSIS + 10. I don't think the meeting will be of much significance
Joly MacFie:I'd appreciate if you'd comment on that on either the list or the wiki, Bill.
Fatima Cambronero:why @Bill? +1 @Joly
Evan Leibovitch:It's my understanding that the ALAC Future Challenges WG will be discussing how ICANN cand At-Large can best act in response to the WCIT developments. If you're interested in participating, please contact At-Large staff or one of the WG chairs (myself or Jean Jacques Subrenat)
Yaovi A:+1 @Olivier, more work for tha ALSes at the national level
Andres Piazza:@Olivier +1 on ALSs at National Level
Carlton Samuels:@Bill on WSIS+10: +1 The Agenda sends the message
Carlton Samuels:Well things can go wrong.....but the Agenda does not suggest much movement beyond the status quo
