Summary
Board directs staff to work with ALAC to finalize a proposal to fund one person from each At-Large Structure to attend the proposed Summit.

Text
Whereas, the At-Large Advisory Committee is now supported by five Regional At-Large Organizations comprised of more than one hundred At-Large Structures.

Whereas, members of the ALAC, RALOs, and At-Large Structures believe that a face-to-face meeting of at least one person from each of these structures in conjunction with an ICANN meeting would facilitate their coordination and work on ICANN policy matters relating to the interests of individual Internet users.

Whereas, the ALAC and constituents have been planning for such a Summit since ICANN's San Juan meeting.

Whereas, this would be a special event associated with the completion of the establishment of the At-Large Advisory Committee.

Whereas, many of the ALAC At-Large structures are unable to cover the costs of sending a representative to an ICANN meeting for this purpose.

Resolved (2008.02.15.12), the Board directs Staff to work with the ALAC to finalise a proposal that will fund one person from each At-Large Structure to attend the proposed Summit, for consideration as part of the 2008-2009 operating plan and budget process.
