Dear Andrei,<br>
<br>
thank you for this. Whilst I usually completely agree with our friends in SSAC, I am really surprised to read one specific comment that is both technically wrong in the context of the ICANN Bylaws, and also disenfranchises the At-Large community and the At-Large
Advisory Committee.<br>
<br>
Quoting from SSAC106, Section 2, Comments on RSSAC037:<br>
<br>
<span style="font-size:15.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#3366FF">The SSAC notes that Section 4 of RSSAC037, listing the RSS stakeholders, does not make explicit mention of the Internet's user base. The reference to the ICANN Community includes ICANN's
At Large Community, but there is a distinction between the collection of individual Internet users who participate in ICANN's policy development process and the broader collection of Internet users. The stability and security of the Internet's name system
is critical for all Internet users. RSSAC037 states: "The stakeholders of the RSS are the people, groups, and organizations that have an interest or concern in the proper operation of the RSS." It would be logical to consider how to include this broader category
of Internet users within the evolution of the RSS's governance structures. This topic could be addressed in the ongoing evolution of the RSS governance processes.</span><span style="font-size:15.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><br>
<br>
</span>Basically put: the ALAC, according the SSAC comment in SSAC106, is a "collection of individual Internet users who participate in ICANN's policy development process" and NOT "the broader collection of Internet users".<br>
<br>
This is wrong, according to ICANN Bylaws:<br>
<br>
<span style="color:#3366FF">(i) The At-Large Advisory Committee ("<strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">At-Large Advisory Committee</span></strong>" or "<strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">ALAC</span></strong>") is the primary
organizational home within ICANN for individual Internet users. The role of the ALAC shall be to consider and provide advice on the activities of ICANN, insofar as they relate to the interests of individual Internet users. This includes policies created through
ICANN's Supporting Organizations, as well as the many other issues for which community input and advice is appropriate. The ALAC, which plays an important role in ICANN's accountability mechanisms, also coordinates some of ICANN's outreach to individual Internet
users.</span><br>
<br>
This disenfranchises the ALAC as it basically tags the ALAC as a "collection of individual Internet users who participate in ICANN's policy development process". Whilst I can imagine that some of the members of the SAC might think the ALAC is a "collection",
I am very surprised that this type of language has gone through the usually thorough SSAC processes. Otherwise, why have we built this network of RALOs, ALSes, and individual members from around the world for, if it was not to reach out to *all* Internet users
out there?<br>
<br>
I am really very surprised that this was let through.<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<o:p></o:p></p>
