Immediately after the Silicon Valley Meeting, the WTs, along with  in collaboration with the At-Large Staff, will begin preparing their final report to the ALAC on the Improvements Project.  This report will contain the WTs' formal proposals for the ALAC's consideration.  This phase of the Improvements Project is scheduled to conclude early in the second quarter of 2011.

At ICANN’s Silicon Valley Meeting today, as part of the ALAC and Regional Leadership Working Session 1, the four ALAC/At-Large Improvements Work Teams (WTs) presented their draft implementation proposals to the broad At-Large Community -- that is, to the RALOs and their ALSes.  The purpose of this session was for the Community to give the WTs its feedback; overall, the draft proposals were met with widespread approval and enthusiasm.

Over the next four days in San Francisco, the WTs will incorporate the Community's input into their proposals.  The WTs will then present these revised proposals to the ALAC and regional leadership

Even more striking than this progress has been the extensive “bottom-up” approach taken by the ALAC and At-Large in this work.  The Improvements Project has truly been conducted and led by the At-Large “edges” – that is, by the regional ALSes and their members.  Of the eight co-chairs of the Improvements Work Teams (WTs), the majority (five) are not ALAC members; furthermore, the majority of WT members, by far, come straight from the ALSes.
