[ALAC] Rules of Procedure - Draft for discussion at 26 March ALAC meeting

[Alan Greenberg]

Attached please find the Draft Rules of Procedure for discussion at 
the 26 March 2013 ALAC meeting. Also attached is a redline version 
showing most of the changes from the RoP discussed at the 19 March 
2013 meeting.

In addition to the changes detailed below, there are two sets of 
changes what do not show in the redline:

- A number of corrections to cross-references within the document.
- The movement of what was "10.3 Meeting Rules" to "10. Rules of the 
ALAC". This change was not shown in the redline version since the 
move caused all of the following paragraph numbers to be changed, 
making the document quite confusing.

Changes showing in the redline version:

1. Clarifying the status of individual members within At-large.
1.2 clarification of rules used.
2. Add definition of Super-majority and capitalize it where used 
within the document.
5.2 and other places: Define AAGM on first usage, and us it instead 
of AGM within the document (some occurrences previously said AGM).
5.6 Made reference to privileges associated only with the "ALAC Chair" clearer.
5.13 Replaced reference to Ombudsman with an alternative phrase taken 
from the ICANN Bylaws.
5.14 Added condition that only those who have at least one other ALAC 
member supporting them can be named Chair.
10.1 The section on rules was moved because it did not apply only to 
meetings. The addition of "or activities" acknowledges this.
11.4.2 Add a word that had inadvertently been omitted.
11.4.4 Removal of a redundant phrase.
11.2.3 Addition of rule to allow more stringent rules for motion adoption.
