AGENDA:

2. Review of Action Items Glenn McKnight  (2 min) 

2.1 All: Please welcome new NARALO ALS:  Online News Association

UPDATEE NP: IN PROGRESS

Staff currently awaiting Regional Advice as per recent emails sent to Secretariat. Secretariat provided advice upon reception of the application form and not the Due Diligence. It is only upon reception of the Due Diligence and after consultation with members than Regional Advice can be provided. This can be for instance decided during a NARALO Monthly meeting

2.2. Nathalie Peregrine (Staff) The ALS RALO database is to show the date of updating, please advise of status

NP: COMPLETED

This AI was assigned before ATLAS II. The database has now been completely updated and is uploaded to a staff Google document for ease of editing. We therefore have access to all revision dates. Currently only Ariel Liang and  Nathalie  are able to edit the data contained.

2.3. Nathalie Peregrine (Staff) to notify RALO leaders and the ALAC members when the RALO ALS database is updated.

NP: COMPLETED

As mentioned above, RALO database went through a updating upheaval in the run up to ATLAS II. It is always being updated as members email with contact details modifications and as we welcome more and more ALSs, but the information there is considered correct

2.4 Staff: Please advise on the status of the "First Nations" Mentoring Program-

2.5. Staff: Please advise of the status of the request to grant access to VIBUG for the development and testing of new ICANN web features for the visually impaired.

2.6. All: Potential ALS decerticifations pending: peoplewho.org and Web405. To the knowledge of the Chair they have not voted or participated in At-Large Summits. The chair will conduct extensive outreach and collect regional consensus before proceeding. Please alert the Secretary or staff if you have any knowledge of or communication with these groups.

UPDATE from Ariel : If NARALO wish to decertify these two ALSes, we will need to put them on the Former At-Large Structure wiki space here https://community.icann.org/x/sid-Ag and present the evidence of their inactivity. Their voting records should be good evidence

2.7. Staff: please check on the request of Steve Crocker to invite Ken Harrenstein to present in Los Angeles (per At-Large leadership meeting Buenos Aires - See 4.1.5)

2.8. All: NARALO will be opening official communication with ARIN, per the request of the At-Large Board representative. We may appoint someone from the region to be an ARIN liaison, please send your expressions of interest to the Secretary.

2.9. Staff/Secretary: Possible ALS duplication: Emerging Futures Network and Youth Helping Youth are sometimes treated as distinct groups, but they are the same organization. Please ensure information is consistent across our data stores - Nathalie has checked and  confirmed that the data is correct.

2.10. Staff/Secretary: Please confirm that new ALS reps are added to the NARALO mailing list and Skype chat - mail list is updated. Skype Chat to be updated by NARALO Secretariat
