Wiki

The wiki holds the information about a WG and its activities. WG are listed as child pages under the https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/AtLarge+Working+Groups page which is under the ALAC space. Information about a WG on the wiki typically includes:

• Description of the WG - on the same wiki page for the WG
• Members - usually in a table, showing region, member name and position in the WG - also on the same wiki page for the WG
• Meetings and Events - a child page under the WG page with links to childpages for each meeting held (meeting page), named after the date of the meeting (Day Month Year). Each Meeting Page contains the following information:
  
  • Name of meeting (WG name plus date and time of meeting)
  • Date of Meeting (eg Tuesday 9 July 2013)
  • Time of meeting (e.g 17:00 - 18:00 UTC with a link to http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedform.html

Calendar

When an Meeting Page is created, At-Large Staff updates the At-Large calendar with

• When: date and time of meeting in UTC (e.g Monday July 1, 7pm - 8pm)
• Where: varies, often the time of the meeting in UTC, sometimes the adigo conference number to join via telephone bridge and/or the Adobe Connect room url
• Description: varies, either a link to the meetings and events wiki page, or the text of the meeting notice sent on the email list (which contains links to agenda, Adobe Connect room, wiki workspace

Event Time Announcer

Event Time Announcer is used in meeting notices sent on mailing lists and on wiki meeting pages to show the meeting time in their time zone

Email lists

Mailing list is used by WG members to discuss issues pertinent to the WG and by staff to send meeting notices and reminders for upcoming WG calls. Archives of WGs are usually publicly viewable by anyone.

Teleconferences

Teleconferences - used by WGs in the meeting to share content, to administer the meeting (e.g establish speaking order) and for members to chat. Staff also notes Action Items. The text chat and Action Items are copied to the child pages of the 
Meeting Page after the meeting.

Telephone Bridge

Telephone Bridge - the audio from the bridge is saved as a MP3 file and uploaded to the wiki on the Meeting Page. Instructions on how to use the bridge (e.g mute, unmute) are on the adigo wiki page and repreated in the Adobe Connect chat.
