Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Thanks to Roman for his confluence "hacking
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:skills ;-)
Roman Pelikh:not a problem
Cintra Sooknanan:1. whilst a hint is given as to the term length, it is not clear, incase the current set of applications is segmented into severalsub-rounds. I therefore suggest a term length of "First Round, up to themaximum length of one year, renewable".2. Having spent some time thinking about this, it occurred to me thatall appointments have to be ratified by the ALAC -- and not solely theALAC Chair. The RG is the "At-Large new gTLD Review Group". The soleratifying entity for appointment to such an operational function of theALAC is the ALAC itself.3. Quoting Cintra's message:*gTLD RG Composition*The ANgWG had determined that, at least initially, the gTLD RG be composedof:- 2 members to be picked by each of the RALOs- 1 ALAC member volunteer from each Region, as determined by the ALACThe way this is worded makes it sound like the pick of the RALO isfinal. In fact, if this is the wish of this group, the RALOs can maketheir selection and send their recommendation to the ALAC, but it is theALAC that will make the
Yaovi Atohoun:I am also suggesting that the call doc mention the time commitment. Please need to devote their time if they want to volunteer
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:It might turn some people off to volunteer for many years on this group
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:especially if there is so much work
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:and yes Yaovi, there is an upper limit about time commitments to be asked from volunteers
Andrew Mack:Sorry all, need to jump off for a meeting. All the best, Andrew
Cintra Sooknanan:bye Andrew
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:agreed, Alan
Yaovi Atohoun:OK
Yaovi Atohoun:Thanks
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:yes, two calls per months
Olivier Crepin-Leblond:thank you!
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:Thanks Bye all
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:thanks all!
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Bye
Alan Greenberg:I think the consenss sis: RALOs each nominate/recommnd two names. ALAC either ratifies those or reject. ALAC names 1 additional person per region. No rules regarding affiliation of any of the those named except for being from region.
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:+1 Alan
