Subject: [ALAC-Internal] Welcome to At-Large!

Dear  Anivar and  Hrishikesh,

ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that
Swathanthra Malayalam Computing has been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS).  The ALAC greatly appreciates your group's interest in involving individual users in APRALO and ICANN and looks forward to working with you and your colleagues. 
The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your organization, other ALSes, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your input
 on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated. 
It¹s very important to keep the members of your
 organization informed (about significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development efforts) and engaged in activities of interest. Here are a few of the tools members of At-Large find useful: 
The At-Large wiki space is where you can find most of the relevant information: 
The At-Large
 introductory page help you navigate through the wiki contents. This is where you can find the latest announcements, and subscribe to the At-Large
 Google calendar at the bottom of the page. This will ensure you never miss a meeting! 
>From any chosen page in the At-Large wiki, you can find your bearings easily by navigating via the purple box at the top left hand corner of the page.
 It is very convenient to be able to consult the latest At-Large Policy Development Activity ,
find out more about the Regional At-Large Organizations (RALOs),
and about At-Large Working Groups .  For the most up to date information about
 At-Large meetings during ICANN Public meetings,  it is worth bookmarking this wiki page! 
Regional wiki webpages also have been created to distribute information (including in local languages) on activities,
 events and issues of particular interest to people in each region. These are maintained by the community. They are: 
African Region: http://www.afralo.org
Asia/Australia/Pacific Region: http://www.apralo.org
European Region: http://www.euralo.org 
Latin America/Caribbean Region:  http://www.lacralo.org
North American Region: http://www.naralo.org  
At-Large Mailing Lists. There are many At-Large email lists, for each region, you can sign up to them and manage
 your subscriptions at:
http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo .
The primary and secondary points of contact you have identified in the application form will automatically be added to your region's list just for accredited ALSes to discuss regional issues and to the mailing list for Staff
 announcements (only Staff can post messages to that list); you are invited to join others as you wish. 
ALAC website. The ALAC website  is
 a good source for ICANN news and information of interest to individual Internet users.  We encourage you to provide your members with a link.  The ALAC relies on volunteers to translate information into multiple languages. Translations of documents on the
 website are welcome and should be sent to  At-Large staff.  
ICANN website: The ICANN website is
 where all announcements  are posted, and where you can find practical information about ICANN Public meetings . 
Skype chat: At-Large community members and staff use Skype group chats extensively. A group chat exists for most
 Working Groups and RALOs. So please don¹t hesitate to send At-Large Staff your Skype ID and we¹ll
 gladly add you to the relevant chats. Please click here  if you don¹t
 have a Skype account. It¹s free and staff are available to help if you run into any trouble. 
Facebook: The At-Large community has its own Facebook
 page . It¹s useful to keep up with announcements and helpful
information. 
Twitter: Members of At-Large tweet extensively and are particularly active during ICANN Public meetings. Follow At-Large
 on Twitter ! 
We will forward the At-Large Beginners¹ guide shortly, as it is in the process of being updated. In the meantime, please refer to the recording of our Informal

Welcome Webinar for new ALSes  which took place in July2015. Another series of on boarding webinars will be scheduled shortly and notification will go out to all new ALSes. 
We look forward to working with you and your organization's members to advance individual Internet users' interests within ICANN.  If you have any questions,
 or need additional information, please contact us at staff at atlarge.icann.org. 
Sincerely, 
The At-Large Advisory Committee
