12:00:32 From David Mackey to Everyone : Hi Heidi, Hi All :-)
12:00:39 From Heidi Ullrich to Everyone : Today’s Action Items (and those of the past few calls) are at: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Unaffiliated+Individuals+Working+Party+Action+Items

12:03:34 From Maureen Hilyard to Everyone : Sorry for being late
12:03:40 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Welcome Alan & Maureen
12:08:40 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Wiki page: https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=151849126
12:10:16 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Welcome Hanan
12:13:51 From Hanan Khatib to Everyone : thank you
12:15:00 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Wiki page on voting issues: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/UIM-WP+Voting+Issues
12:15:04 From Judith Hellerstein to Everyone : I commented
12:15:22 From Alan Greenberg to Everyone : Alan did as well
12:15:28 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone : We may simply want to say, all Individual Members are deemed individuals irrespective of any RALO to which they may belong. This may appear better than trying to make EURALO an exception of exemption. - Dr. T V Gopal
12:18:43 From Nadira AL-ARAJ to Everyone : yes, Participants are better than observers
12:19:04 From Natalia Filina to Everyone : fully support
12:21:23 From Alan Greenberg to Everyone : I would use MUST as well, but it may receive some pushback from RALOs.
12:22:17 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone : One Individual Member has one vote. - Dr. T V Gopal
12:24:09 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Welcome Daniel
12:24:22 From DANIEL K. NANGHAKA to Everyone : thank you
12:25:44 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Welcome Abdeldjalil
12:26:00 From Jonathan Zuck to Everyone : SOI?
12:26:24 From David Mackey to Everyone : ROI then an RFQ :-)
12:26:24 From Jonathan Zuck to Everyone : We’re precisely trying to PREVENT ROI! ;)
12:26:29 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Welcome Sebastien
12:26:54 From David Mackey to Everyone : ROI is a different process, I guess
12:27:01 From Abdeldjalil Bachar Bong to Everyone : thanks @Michelle
12:29:27 From Heidi Ullrich to Everyone : The deadline of 7 days may need to be extended if it is during an ICANN Meeting week.
12:30:18 From Heidi Ullrich to Everyone : As well as over major holidays in the region.
12:35:59 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone : After one becomes an Individual Member we need an SOI. Also, Scrutiny as a term may please be considered in place of "Due Diligence" or "Verify". - Dr. T V Gopal
12:38:28 From Bill Jouris to Everyone : Why bother with "hiatus"? Just cease to be an Individual Member. Become one again, once no longer an ALS officer
12:39:39 From Judith Hellerstein to Everyone : I think it should be revised every year
12:39:55 From Judith Hellerstein to Everyone : if there are no changes to the soi than that is fine
12:40:32 From Roberto to Everyone : Agree with @Bill - let’s see what others think - and it has to be included in the procedure
12:41:22 From Judith Hellerstein to Everyone : I agree with Alan, we need to cover this in the rules and it should be in the docuemnt
12:41:30 From Judith Hellerstein to Everyone : *document
12:41:33 From David Mackey to Everyone : Maybe it’s something staff can consider this as part of the welcoming activity
12:42:40 From David Mackey to Everyone : part of mobilization is to get individual members to take actions that benefit the at-large community. Outreach is a valid activity that needs to be mobilized
12:43:41 From Gopal Tadepalli to Everyone : The concern is not on the purpose of "SOI". I respect this. Why at the time of applying for the Individual Membership ? It can be rejected as well. - Dr. T V Gopal
12:44:18 From Heidi Ullrich to Everyone : AI noted.
12:44:46 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Roberto, we are not able to hear you
12:44:51 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Dialing out to Roberto now
12:45:28 From David Mackey to Everyone : yes
12:50:29 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : We will look into that, thank you Alan
12:57:16 From David Mackey to Everyone : Agreed. We can ask, but not require
12:57:36 From Bill Jouris to Everyone : But IS spreading the word a reasonable expectation? I don't think so. We should just be happy to be getting their efforts on other things. (If they want to spread the word, fine. Just not an expectstion.)
12:58:38 From Yrjo Lansipuro to Everyone : Expectations should be defined in the same way for both ALSs and IMs
12:59:10 From David Mackey to Everyone : I respectfully disagree Bill. Outreach is an important part of at-large. Not everyone has to go “knock on doors”, but it’s to our collective disadvantage to not ask for sharing with friends. This was a key part of the ALS Mobilization work
12:59:20 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : @Alan - the attendance google doc is now unlocked
13:00:13 From Alan Greenberg to Everyone : @Michele: Nope
13:00:41 From Heidi Ullrich to Everyone : Google doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TM8If-lLOh88HzhRPJOGnxqzng_8V6Rsq_Nod4NpGaE/edit
13:00:50 From Michelle DeSmyter to Everyone : Okay, one moment….
13:01:24 From David Mackey to Everyone : Thanks Roberto, Thanks Everyone :-)
13:01:46 From Maureen Hilyard to Everyone : Thanks everyone - informative meeting
13:01:50 From Nadira AL-ARAJ to Everyone : Thank you Roberto
13:01:50 From Natalia Filina to Everyone : thanks Roberto and all
