    Dear Alan,<br>
    <br>
    I am sorry, but I do not understand why the At-Large working groups
    that deal with exactly this type of work are not included and kept
    more up to date about this work that was going on.<br>
    <br>
    - At-Large Social Media Working Group<br>
    - ALAC Subcommittee on Outreach and Engagement<br>
    <br>
    The RALOs were not involved or informed of progress either.<br>
    <br>
    As a result, I have just lived a 1 hour groundhog day, that is, a
    repetition of all of the discussions that have taken place at RALO
    and RALO Secretariat and at working group level, with questions
    being asked in the document, that are already being addressed, and
    some already being responded to; with people making points that have
    already been made at RALO and RALO Secretariat and at working group
    level. <br>
    <br>
    On the one hand, we defend the need for the At-Large Community to
    have working groups and RALOs. On the other, we completely sideline
    them by having an ad-hoc ALS Communication Plan Task Force and a
    document that gets sent to the ALAC working list only (and no other
    lists).<br>
    <br>
    We really need to look at what we do objectively and decide whether
    we want to practice what we preach or not. Otherwise, we risk being
    accused of schizophrenia or, worse still, hypocrisy.<br>
    <br>
    Kindest regards,<br>
    <br>
