[ALAC] Fwd: Chair's Summary of High Level Meeting October 15th, 2012

[Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond]

Dear all,

please find enclosed the message from the GAC Chair with her summary
report of the GAC High Level Meeting.

The involvement in this meeting of many in our community has helped
raise ICANN's profile with senior government officials of many countries
and shown the true diversity that our community is built on.

In particular, I would like to thank Yrjö Länsipuro and Jean-Jacques
Subrenat for being our Liaisons to the event's organisers and our
permanent representatives in the set of events that took place. I would
also like to thank members of the ALAC Executive Committee for their
work in reaching out to governments during the lunch that was organised
on the day. They thought they were going to a lunch - they got put to
work and their food got cold while they were interacting with guests.

But my biggest thanks go to Heather Dryden and her Team for organising
this day's events. In the current political climate, it is important
that senior officials improve their understanding of the ICANN community
and the bottom-up multi-stakeholder model. This day brought many welcome
bricks to the edifice and I am pleased that the ALAC was invited to take
part in it.

Best regards,

Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond
ALAC Chair
