Julia Charvolen:Agenda: https://community.icann.org/x/RqFwAg
Jean-Jacques S.:hello !
Jean-Jacques S.:hello Echo
Jean-Jacques S.:(that sounded like Holly?)
Silvia Vivanco:Hello everyone
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:only here in listen mode via AC room until NomCom callhes
Jean-Jacques S.:could we have an audio test?
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:say again until Non Com call finishes
Jean-Jacques S.:hello could we have an audio test?
Holly Raiche:I am on mute speakers plus have used *6 - so it should not be me
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Cheryl - keep me posted when you finish NomCom and we will dial-out to you
Eduardo Diaz:JJ - I can not hear you
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Hello everyone
Jean-Jacques S.:hello, could we have an audio test?
Winthrop Yu:Nada frrom JJS
Jean-Jacques S.:ah, could hear Gisella a few seconds...
Jean-Jacques S.:(am not speaking, am just asking to hear)
Julie Hammer:Hi Everyone!!
Jean-Jacques S.:hello Gisella, could you say something please?
Jean-Jacques S.:(an unusually quiet bunch tonight...)
Jean-Jacques S.:(is that someone with a microphone outside, in the wind?)
Sandra Hoferichter:Hi all!
Evan Leibovitch:I think we have quorum
Jean-Jacques S.:(there's an echo in someone's room...)
Jean-Jacques S.:COULD YOU PLEASE CHECK ABOUT MUTING, THERE'S AN ECHO. thanks.
Gisella Gruber-White:Wolf Ludwig has joined the AC room
Carlton Samuels:+1. I'm VERY much interested in this topic and would join the WG
Carlton Samuels:This topic = DPI
Jean-Jacques S.:Alan, is your concern that examining the impact of DPI on the general Internet user would lie outside the remit of ICANN?
Alan Greenberg:@JJ, yes, I have concerns that such a WG could easily wander outside of ICANN remit. Whether any of it is in ICANN's remit, I have not really thought through.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/ALAC+2013.03.26+-+Action+Items+EN
Jean-Jacques S.:@Alan, my point of departure is somewhat different: DPI has the potential to deeply impact the general Internet user. Those of us who consider this important must therefore present the issue in a way which will not contravene the ICANN remit.
Holly Raiche:I have joined the ITRPD - which is meeting
Jean-Jacques S.:@Holly, could you send me a link to that? Thanks.
Gisella Gruber-White:Welcome Tijani who has just joined the call
Holly Raiche:Hi JJ: Do you mean, the ITRP - Inter-Registrar Transfer Process? Happy to fill you in on what we are doing
Jean-Jacques S.:@Holly, sorry, I was still thinking about DPI.
Heidi Ullrich:Congratulations, TEDIC! Now 156 ALSes!
Eduardo Diaz:I am back into the adobe - my internet connection was gone for a while
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:Agree with Alan.
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:Start now.
Yaovi Atohoun:I volunteer for such a group
Yaovi Atohoun:or taskforce
Jean-Jacques S.:@Olivier, "with a view" already indicates "possibility"...
Carlton Samuels:The task is to encourage 'joiners' and at the same time give those who actively engage in the business of the At-Large in ICANN to determine the major questions aound our remit.
Heidi Ullrich:Wiki page for reports: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large%20Reports%20from%20WGs,%20RALOs%20and%20Liaisons
Heidi Ullrich:Liaison report: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/GNSO+Liaison+Reports
Heidi Ullrich:GNSO report, that is...
Carlton Samuels:It is afterall 'whosoever will may come'. But it cannot be 'everyone has the same weight of decision-making regardless of knowledge or demonstrable interest'!
Aída Noblia:podrían llamarme al 59829023380 o 098456389
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Aida - yes!
Aída Noblia:Gracias! mil disculpas..
Evan Leibovitch:Just to say that I am fundamentally opposed to the GNSO's decision to do an implemenmtation-versus-policy working group in a silo separate from the rest of the ICANN community. The Board should be DIRECTING that this be a cross-community group. Just having (non-voting) ALAC participants in a GNSO group is IMO absolutely pointless.
Jean-Jacques S.:@Evan +1
Jean-Jacques S.:Because, seen from the Board, "policy" = Board, "implementation" = CEO & Staff; the rest is "comment"...
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:@ Alan, I agree that the questions are new. I think Edmon wants to respond to those questions.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:no
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:not on audio
Heidi Ullrich:ccNSO Liaison report: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/ccNSO+Liaison+Reports
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:only that. PY is joining
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:Paraguay
Alan Greenberg:PY = Paraguay.
Heidi Ullrich:SSAC liaison report: https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/SSAC+Liaison+Reports
Alan Greenberg:Beat me!
Heidi Ullrich:The interpretors are not able to interpret Julie given the technical issue on her line.
Carlton Samuels:@Evan on policy vs. implementation - +1. I
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:I can hear her quite well. She's just very loud
Alan Greenberg:I agree that it would have been encouraging for the Board to have taken some more "community-based" action. Given the difficulty that has been experienced in CWGs before, I think the GNSO would have been crazy to embark on that part themselves. It is unfortunate that the various Chairs of bodies that care did not choose to get together and jointly recommend chartering a joint group (as they did with DSSA). Or maybe they tried and it didn't succeed.
Alan Greenberg:BTW, to the extent that WGs vote, any At-large members DO have a vote within the WG. It is on the GNSO that we don't. But as has been evidenced in the IGO/INGO WG, we can influence where things go. And of course, we don't always win...
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:coorect the record OCL PY will join ccNSO on May 31
Holly Raiche:@OLC - I really cant do my report until the APRALO call - today. Will do the report for tomorrow
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:read correction please
Natalia Enciso:Great news CLO, thanks
Natalia Enciso:can you call me back, please?
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Natalia - yes
Natalia Enciso:back on the call now Gisella, thanks
Matt Ashtiani:the vote is quorate, reminder have been sent to those who have not yet voted.
Yaovi Atohoun:Please, I am disconnected
Matt Ashtiani 2:this vote is also quorate, reminders have also been sent to those who have not yet voted.
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Yaovi - we are callig you back
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Carlton - have you left for your other meeting?
Yaovi Atohoun:@ Gisella: - Thanks
Gisella Gruber-White:Garth has joined the call
Holly Raiche:I would be very surprised if it is appropriate - or even possible - for a Board not to have responsibilitiesit should have
Jean-Jacques S.:@Alan, I should have said "normal" rather than "legal"
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:It is important that the statement is balanced - pointing out the issues that the ALAC agrees with and support as well as the concerns that the ALAC has.
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:I believe the issue/question that JJS raised can be posed under this ATRT2 item. I also believe he had proposed drafting a statement on the ALAC mail.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:++++ to Alan
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:What prohibits ALAN from drafting as a member of the ALAC?
Jean-Jacques S.:@Alan, that's one of the points: the whole "review" culture in ICANN is designed to keep the children fed and quiet (and polite, if possible). I don't believe the review process really addresses some of the larger (over-arching) issues.
Carlton Samuels:++++1 to Alan: We can but the larger picture - and the strategic imperatives per Evan's initiation - need to signaled as well.
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:Is the ATRT2 hat more important than the ALAC hat? And ALan being our liaison to GNSO with the most experience in PDPs - to have you hamstrung is ridiculous.
Alan Greenberg:@Rinalia. Nothing prohibits me drafting, but it does really constrain how much I can push for the ATRT to focus on those issues if I do.
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:@Alan, fodder based from experience from you ratified by ALAC becomes an ALAC view, not an ALAN view.
Evan Leibovitch:What is you just start dumb and work to smarten it up?
Evan Leibovitch:+1 Rinalia
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:https://community.icann.org/display/alacpolicydev/At-Large+Proposed+Final+2013+RAA+Workspace
Holly Raiche:Thanks Alan - happy to word the statement that way
Holly Raiche:OLC - The sentiment is that there should be flesh on it. We can still say that - just insist we are part of those discussion
Alan Greenberg:Holly, sure. But let's keep in mind that if they had come up with a complete and final 15 page spec for policy./privacy providers, we would have been very unhappy about THAT process. So we need to be consistant.
Julie Hammer:Key Signing Key
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Thank you Julie!
Evan Leibovitch:Olivier: it may be valid to comment on registrars not registries because, as the "retailers" of domain names they are closer to end users
Holly Raiche:@Alan - I take what you are saying. But there is still a need - which we would like to be part of - in putting flesh on the proposal
Alan Greenberg:We have had very few complaints about RAs in the past.
Heidi Ullrich:Current de-certification process: http://www.atlarge.icann.org/en/framework.htm
Alan Greenberg:@Holly. Certainly, and if/when a PDP starts we do not have strong participattion in that, we have some explaining to do.
Heidi Ullrich:paragraph 7
Garth Bruen:Sorry all, was on voice but lost connectivity.
Holly Raiche:@ ALan - trust me - there will be strong participation
Garth Bruen:I have found WIFI but now have no voice.
Heidi Ullrich:@Garth, would you like a dial out/
Rinalia Abdul Rahim:Where is the voice lost in wifi? Where is the knowledge lost in information? :)
Garth Bruen:@Heidi ,It wont connect on my end - no phone accss
Heidi Ullrich:ok
Garth Bruen:On the issue of RAA Negotiations I have submitted a very critical letter to the ATRT: http://forum.icann.org/lists/comments-atrt2-02apr13/msg00019.html
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:Understood... Yes decertofy but have your records show NO impediament to future re acreditation ON the record
Garth Bruen:In this letter you will find the details of change to the contract with has ZERO transparency.
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:ok -- sure!
Garth Bruen:The change was not disclosed in previous summary docs. The change was submitted by "ICANN Ecconomic Advisors" who are never idenitified, citing "Extensive Ecconomic Studies" which were never pulished.
Garth Bruen:A direct request to the NT staff to identifiy the advisors and post the study have been ignored.
Garth Bruen:This as phantom contract change which should not be tollerated by ALAC.
Garth Bruen:It is a prime example of why our oversight is needed in the negotiations.
Yaovi Atohoun:@ Olivier : Has the requester given reason for the first ALS?
Garth Bruen:From my letter: "The community does not even know if this "negotiation" took place in thesame venue or context as the other RAA changes with the full NT membershippresent. In a strict reading of the change it appears ICANN recommended thechange to itself. In short, because this change does not have communityreview it cannot have community support. "
Heidi Ullrich:Olivier has dropped. Adigo is dialing him back
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:I am listening on Adobe
Holly Raiche:@Sala - in both cases, decertification is at the request of the organisation - we aren't stepping in - we are justdoing what we have been asked to by a Pakistani
Gisella Gruber-White:Olivier is back
Alan Greenberg:It is a non-ALS. Ihas left this mortal coil. It has joined the choir invisible!
Alan Greenberg:oops - shuffled off this mortal coil
Sebastien:Not Tokyo Chapter. ALS from Japan ;)
Sebastien:Izumi decided to close the organization
Holly Raiche:@OLC - Isumi was very clear - he wants decertification. - as does Naveed - who confirms that ISOC_Pakistan does not exist
Yaovi Atohoun:@ Sebastian - Thanks
Sebastien:As I was in Japan after Beijing I was there when he wrote the letter to ALAC
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:got dropped. Can I get a redial?
Heidi Ullrich:Interpretors have approxiately 40 mins
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:back on
Yaovi Atohoun:Please could you ask the operator to call me back?
Gisella Gruber-White:@ Yaovi - yes
Heidi Ullrich:Sala, the rules on ALS certification/de-certification are here: http://www.atlarge.icann.org/en/framework.htm
Yaovi Atohoun:The ALS in Japan is "Internet Users Network (Tokyo) " From the mail we receive from the staff
Carlton Samuels:Re de-certification> What happens if an ALS, like the National Consumers League of Jamaica, just resign?
Carlton Samuels:As they did from LACRALO?
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:When we had a resignation before we formally accepted the resognation and noted for the record a decertification of the ALS
Carlton Samuels:@CLO: This IS what I can recall..and it still makes perfect sense to me!
Yaovi Atohoun:@ Gisella _- Disconnected again. I am listening through my computer Audio
Alan Greenberg:And that interaction with the Ombudsman lost the ALAC one or more valuable members.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:It was nit at all pleasant
Alan Greenberg:"nit" is indeed a relevant word in relation to that whole situation.
Garth Bruen:I support Seth's nomination
Heidi Ullrich:Two proposals:
Heidi Ullrich: Proposal 1: Do you agree with the proposal that Seth Reiss act as the Chair if the ALAC Objections Follow-up Group?b. Proposal 2: Do you agree with the proposal that Rinalia Abdul Rahim be a member in the Objections Follow-up Group?
Jean-Jacques S.:Agree.
Holly Raiche:Agree to both
Garth Bruen:+1
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:agree with the proposals re: Seth Reiss and Rinalia
Yaovi Atohoun:YES for Seth and YES for Rinalia

Rinalia Abdul Rahim:Thank you everyone.
Holly Raiche:Marika has already sent out a Doodle for the first meeting with links to background documents
Evan Leibovitch:The GNSO has an internal vested interest in expanding its remit beyond that of hight level policy
Evan Leibovitch:+1 to thinking independently. -1 to participating in the GNSO joke
Wolf Ludwig:Sorry, I need to leave now -- good bye.
Gisella Gruber-White:Thank you Wolf
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:Thanks Wolf!
