ALAC & ICANN Board Joint Meeting

Board Questions to the ALAC:

1. To what degree is your membership actively participating in CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 2?  What could the Board or ICANN organization do to facilitate participation and timely completion of this work?
2. What policy/advice issues are top priorities for your group?

ALAC Questions to the Board:

1. Meeting format and difficulty in cross-SO/AC participation, with GNSO PDP participation

The last few meetings, coinciding with new meeting strategy, seem to have measurably increased difficulty in scheduling meetings and in particular often does no allow those active in ALAC from participating in other AC/SO activities. As an example, major GNSO PDPs such as gTLD Subsequent Procedures or Next Gen RDS meetings are held in direct opposition to At-Large working sessions. Attendance at Board-Other-AC/SO meetings tends to be impossible.

Has the Board experienced anything similar or received other such comments?

2. Engaging with end-users is a real challenge due to the rather specialized topics ICANN discusses and the complexity and depth of knowledge required. However, there also is a question of what realistic expectations should be. Based on the comments from the At-Large Review, it is unclear if we are ever going to meeting the expectations of some parts of the community (Board, SOs, ACs)

ALAC will present a brief description of what we think is reasonable, and contrast it with some apparent perceptions. The ALAC would appreciate hearing from Board members what they think are reasonable targets.
