  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:http://dl.dropbox.com/u/877052/LACRALO-Costa-Rica-Events-WG/LACRALO%20GA_Working%20Sessions%20in%20Costa%20Rica.pdf
  Natalia Enciso:I agree with @Sylvia, we would need more time for the GA.
  Fatima Cambronero:me too
  Natalia Enciso:what would be the themes @Dev?
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:The themes would be the what ALSes want to discuss
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:and propose for discussion
  Natalia Enciso:what about ALAC members or other Working groups? Will our schedule not be confronted with this WS?
  Natalia Enciso:@Dev, apart form the GA??
  sergio salinas porto:quien esta hablando?
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Elad Levinson
  sergio salinas porto:ok...alquien me pude decir quien es este señor?
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:@Dev, GA and working groups are different things!!
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Its not WGs
  Cintra Sooknanan 2:yes
  Cintra Sooknanan 2:ga and workshops
  Natalia Enciso:I will write here my comments since I've been told from the begining that I am not heard loud and clear. So
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:ok, but not alltogher, and getting the GA time
  Natalia Enciso:According to our bylaws the themes to discuss in the GA are proposed ahead the GA and only important and urgents matter could be added if the GA approves
  Natalia Enciso:So,  dont see the point spending so much time in this that we are already discussing in the list. It is preferable to spend that precious time in the GA
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:well if there are issues raised during Monday or Wednesday, they can be added to the Thursday GA
  Natalia Enciso:We have to discuss the mofication of the Principles and Procedures which would be a hard work, we would need as much time as possible.
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:agree with Natalia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:then we have to submit the modifications
  Olivier Crepin-Leblond:How many hours do you estimate will be needed to modify bylaws?
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:to the agenda
  Cintra Sooknanan 2:Thanks for clarifying this Natalia
  Natalia Enciso:Silvia Vivanco: Can you take notes of my comments since I cannot speak on the phone and I noticed that my comments in previous meetings were not take into notes. Thanks.
  Silvia Vivanco:Hi Natalia sure. Please send me your comments and I will add them to the minutes.
  Natalia Enciso:I posted already on the chat.
  Carlos Watson:Hello everyone
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:https://community.icann.org/x/2ZzbAQ
  Jose Arce:Hello Carlos !!!
  Carlos Watson:hi Jose
  sergio salinas porto:no estoy preguntando eso... pregunto quienes se reunieron y por que no esbamos los alac member? por que fuimos excluidos?
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:agree Dev, we can do that!
  sergio salinas porto:I'm not asking that ... wonder who met and we were not the alac member? that we were excluded?
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:two hours for the GA it is NOT enough!
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:it is 3 hours on Thursday, Sylvia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:are we going to have so many motions/modifications to pass
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:?
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:even so
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:who is speaking?
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:fatima
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:thanks
  Natalia Enciso:agree with @Sylvia. We would need at least 2 days for the GA and bylaws modifications.
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:thats it, Natalia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Interpretation is available during working lunch
  Natalia Enciso:@Dev you were part of the modification of the bylaws WG. You know the hard work it took. Imagine the new ALSs rept that might not have a clear picture, would neer more time to understand it. So, 1 day of 3 hours would not be enough.
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:agree with Natalia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:all ALSes
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:have the right to submit topics for discussion and motions /amendments
  Natalia Enciso:agree with @Fatima
  Natalia Enciso:@Sebastian, the WG is working for 2 years now. It is not an easy task. There are some incongruencies.
  Natalia Enciso:@Sebastian, I just joined. Fatima, Dev, Sergio, Sylvia and Cintra were from the begining
  Fatima Cambronero:@Sebastian, ¿hay algo que desconozcamos los miembros de LACRALO que justifique su insistencia en los Working Sessions?
  Natalia Enciso:@Sebastina, bylaws can ONLY be modified by the GA. And the GA is united every 2 years. If we lost this opportunity we would have to wait for +2 years.
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:No, natalia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:bylaws can be done by virtual GA
  Fatima Cambronero:no, Dev
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:a vote is done just as we vote for members
  Sebastien:Sory I drop of after my intervention :(
  Heidi Ullrich:We will call you back, Sebastien
  sergio salinas porto:estoy yo dev
  Natalia Enciso:Participating in the bylaws modification is a good way to participate, to work all together. It would be a good opportunity to test that task.
  sergio salinas porto:@dev estoy yo despues de jose
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:whois talking
  Heidi Ullrich:Vanda
  sergio salinas porto:como????????
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Vanda is speaking
  Natalia Enciso:@Vanda, is there a written rule about that?? Can you show us where? I have read the 3 bylaws (Lacralo, Unesco and Unga) and the GA is the maximun authority.
  sergio salinas porto:no es asi dev
  sergio salinas porto:eso no es real...donde leyo usted esto?
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Natalia our RoP has the ability to vote on any motion online
  Fatima Cambronero:I have my hand raised
  Natalia Enciso:need a dial-out please
  Heidi Ullrich:Will dial out to you, Natalia
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:or vote on any amendment proposed
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:una AG es soberana y puede cambiar sus estatutos si asi lo cree necesario. No entiendo lo que esta diciendo Vanda
  Cintra Sooknanan:Agree with Vanda
  Juan Manuel Rojas:Creo que es importante que trabajemos en favor de lo que necesitamos y para lo que citamos la AG. Es importante tener claro què puntos vamos a discutir para agilizar las discusiones. I'm sorry. I have to go. I have another meeting.
  sergio salinas porto:I have my hand raised for long temp!
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:agree with Natalia
  Sylvia Herlein Leite:sorry with Fatima
  Natalia Enciso:@Dev. I agree that any ALSs can ask for a motion and the GA decides.
  Raquel Gatto:@Fatima, seems a reasonable proposal. If the workshops need to be taken, well better do it together with capacity building
  Natalia Enciso:@there is not virtual GA allowed. The bylaws has incongruencies in this regard. Which is creating us this kind of discussions.
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Natalia, virtual GA are allowed
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:online GA do exist
  Heidi Ullrich:See Section VII: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/2264378/AL%25202007%2520SD%25202%2520Rev2%2520LACRALO%2520Rules%2520of%2520Procedure%2520EN.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1283972736000
  Natalia Enciso:where @DEv? which number?
  Cintra Sooknanan:My proposal in summary is that we recognise that both the by laws and participation are current issues in LACRALO. Therefore we circulate the current bye laws to the region as well as the item points proposed for change for review and to bring all the members up to date. We recognise that the bye laws are there to support participation therefore we hold working group sessions to encourage and to listen to ALSES as to how they wish to participate. We must acknowledge the amount of time that these discussions will take and that we should defer to an online vote
  Heidi Ullrich:VII. MODIFICATIONS TO THE RULES WHERE A VIRTUAL MEETING IS HELD
  Heidi Ullrich:19 When a Virtual Meeting of the Assembly is held, the following Rules shall not apply:6, 12.320 When a Virtual Meeting of the Assembly is held, the following Rules shall replace theoriginal:7 The Chair shall communicate the beginning and the ending of the debate upon agiven topic.

  Cintra Sooknanan:virtual meeting is the same as face to face?
  Fatima Cambronero:no @Cintra
  Cintra Sooknanan:so ...
  Fatima Cambronero:GA is only face to face
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:yes, Cintra
  Cintra Sooknanan:????
  Fatima Cambronero:meeting as montly meeting is only a meeting, no GA
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:a virtual GA can have a motion - it is the same as when elections are done
  Dev Anand Teelucksingh:there is a motion to choose candidates
  Sebastien:Please dont forget that all Ralo were created by a MOU between ICANN (CEO) and ALSs from each region. If bylaws are changed an agreement from ICANN Legal is needed.
  Cintra Sooknanan:afree with Sebastien
  Cintra Sooknanan:agree
  Natalia Enciso:that is a incongruency Dev
  vanda:My connection jsut drop, entered another call
  alberto soto:Dev, insertarse es a continuación del ultimo, por favor respetar el orden,pese a que estas presidiendo ...
  Cintra Sooknanan:Disagree, virtual meeting/GA is not the same as Face to face
  alberto soto:por favor, pueden llamarme nuevamente, se cortó la comunicación: 54 11 53681368 gracias
  vanda:but to Fatima - nothing to do with the authority, the problem is, without  legal adviser for the wording we will end in the smae problem we are fcaing now with our bylwas, lots of possibilities of interpretation that generates confusion.
  Gisella Gruber-White:@ ALberto - we are calling you
  Cintra Sooknanan:agree with Vanda, LACRALO is still part of ICANN and even though there is a level of subsidiarity we must not infringe on the overall rules
  Heidi Ullrich:“General Assembly” or “Assembly” means any meeting or conference, or standingconstituent body of the At-Large Community, as well as actual General Assembly sessions ofa Regional At-Large Organisation;
  elad levinson:thank you for including me on this call and I look forward to meeting many of you in Costa Rica Hasta Luego
  Heidi Ullrich:“General Assembly” or “Assembly” means any meeting or conference, or standingconstituent body of the At-Large Community, as well as actual General Assembly sessions ofa Regional At-Large Organisation;
  vanda:and not  without previous proposal we can come out from a GA with a correct wording to vote. let´s have some issues raised there to be work after the GA.
  vanda:in fact the GA relevance would be to elect members
  Heidi Ullrich:A virtual meeting shall mean an electronic medium that facilitates remote participation.
  alberto soto:Thanks Gisella!! tray again please
  Gisella Gruber-White:@ Alberto - we have a message on the number you gave us
  vanda:if we could came out with the relevant proposals we did in Mexico, that would be a fntastic result, as Sebastien said.
  Gisella Gruber-White:@ Alberto - we are trying again
  vanda:also, from my view, to guarantee we will ahve other financial opportunities to meet f@F it is relevant to have clear and substantive outcomes from this GA
  vanda:I need to attend another call. thanks for the meeting to all!
  Gisella Gruber-White:@ ALberto - your phone rings and then it goes to your message
  alberto soto:Thanks Giselle, is a IP telephone, I have an issue....
  Cintra Sooknanan:I don't think that was what Vanda said, rather she stated that we should send any of our proposed amendments to ICANN legal for checking before we put it to a vote
  Fatima Cambronero:@Vanda, gracias por tu email, entiendo ahora lo que dices, perdón, lo había entendido mal antes
  sergio salinas porto:no entiendo...no tienen respuesta? y el staff por que no nos aviso que se estaban reuniendo con terceros por fuera del lacralo?
