Issue #7

Lead: Javier Rua-Jovet


Excessive amounts of At-Large Community time spent on process and procedure at expense of ALAC’s mandated responsibilities to produce policy advice and coordinate outreach and engagement activities. Too many internal working groups are a distraction.
Final Proposal as approved by the Board
The ALAC has begun to review our WGs, ensuring that the ones we have are active and relevant. We have also started the process to revamp our WG web and Wiki presence to ensure that all WGs are properly represented and documented. Groups no longer active will be segregated, but still documented for historical purposes

ARIWG comments

(MH) Collaboration advised due to relationship of this issue with Item issue #1 - Quality vs quantity of policy advice

(NA) Would be handy to have a one stop shop document  as a wiki page that serve as tool to document all the working groups and their members and process used. This page, will be also good for branching out to the working space or the different resources. 

Status of improvement effort / staff lead
Activities, if any, on which implementation is dependent, or that are dependent on implementation of this recommendation
  1. That the ALAC has developed goals and objectives for 2019
  2. That there is a staff member designated to regularly update Working group wikis and the Working Group Website page
  3. That the CPWG wiki page regularly updates issues discussed and progress statements
Who will implement the recommendation: ICANN community, ICANN Board, ICANN Organization, other?
Anticipated resource requirements (FTEs, tools)
Expected budget implications

Proposed implementation steps:

  1. Clarify ALAC focus areas and objectives for 2019
  2. Establish or re-establish working groups that will deal with specific time-framed issues as required (under the management of key stream leaders of Organisation, Policy and O&E streams.
  3. Ensure that staff establish appropriate and updated wiki pages to record WG objectives as well as details or meetings and outcomes of each WG meeting
  4. Ensure that staff record the Working Groups that are currently active on the At-Large website with links to each WG wiki page
  5. Establish a wiki page for the Consolidated Policy Group, to record topics covered at each meeting and a progress statement on each (including the EPDP WG)
  6. Establish a wiki page for the O&E WG and the outcomes of their monthly meetings (including ATLASIII WGs)
  7. Establish a wiki page for the Oganisational Organisational WGs, and any relevant updates (including ARIWG)
