Four candidates submitted nominations for the LACRALO representative to serve on the ALAC for a term beginning at the end of the December 2010 ICANN meeting to the 2012 ICANN's Annual General Meeting. There was a teleconference held on August 31 2010 with the four candidates before the start of the election period. The election of the LACRALO representative to serve on the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) was completed, with Sergio Salinas Porto elected as the LACRALO representative. ALS participation in this election was high, with 28 out of 34 ALSes in LACRALO having voted in this election. This high level of online participation is a positive step in having a LACRALO virtual GA to vote on motions related to the modifications of the LACRALO Organising Documents.

- to suggest options and procedures in dealing with inactive ALSes and possible draft modifications to the LACRALO organising documents to deal with inactive ALSes in LACRALO as it relates to quorum.
The LACRALO Bylaw WG worked online via a mailing list and had 3 teleconferences in November 2010. Discussion is ongoing.
