Objet : [ALAC-Announce] CONSENSUS CALL: Re: [ALAC] Proposed letter re:
 	Brazil summit 
 
Dear Evan,

thank you for your kind email.
Seeing support voiced from some ALAC members and seeing this letter as
being constructive in supporting the Internet's multi-stakeholder model,
I am conducting a CONSENSUS CALL on sending this letter to the ICANN
Chief Executive Officer, as described on the page:
https://community.icann.org/x/kQifAg

If I do not hear opinions AGAINST sending this correspondence out, I'll
email Fadi Chehadé the contents of this correspondence within 24 hours.
The correspondence will then go through the usual ALAC Statement
ratification process and we should be able to have a Statement by the
end of next week.

Why a consensus call?
Because, as Evan rightly said, it is important that the ICANN CEO
receives this message of support from our community *prior* to arriving
at the Internet Governance Forum which takes place next week in Bali.
Formal ratification of this Statement would delay it until it is too
late. We could have sent it as an un-ratified Statement but since it was
not given a formal, wider distribution than the ALAC list itself, the
above plan is wiser.

Kind regards,

Olivier
