Dear All,

the ALAC will elect a Chair, at least two (2) Vice-Chairs and a
Rapporteur. Rule. 2.2 states that all officers are normally elected at
an Annual General Meeting of ICANN.  Rule 9.1 states that the election
call will be sent by the current ALAC Chair.

 

In keeping with these rules, this message serves as the election call
