Dear Satish,<br>
<br>
I don't have strong objection to this approach especially if the
pilot for us is only for ICANN59 and I'm not sure that majority of
APRALO members will participate to this particular meeting. <br>
But I'd like to know how the results of pilot will be resumed - is
there any procedure decided for the evaluation? <br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Lianna<br>

<div>Dear APRALO Community,<br>
<br>
</div>
We have had the practice of organizing RALO monthly meetings
as face-to-face meetings when they happen during an ICANN
meeting. This is because many ALS representatives are usually
available during ICANN meetings, and a face-to-face meeting
with whoever is present in person (with the rest of the ALSes
joining in by telephone/Adobe Connect as usual) is a good
opportunity to discuss things in detail.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>As per the mail below, ALAC is piloting an initiative that
would eliminate RALO face-to-face monthly meetings during
ICANN Meetings (except for the RALO in whose region that
particular ICANN meeting is organized. The pilot would run for
two meetings: ICANN59 and ICANN60 (of course, for us ICANN60
is the General Assembly, so it wouldn't apply to us for
ICANN60).<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>We would like to get the general feeling of the community
on this matter. If any of you feel that this is a problem in
any way, kindly let us know. If we do not hear comments, we
will assume that we are ok with going ahead with the pilot. I
am sending this out right away because the deadline for our
response is very short (2 May 2017).<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>May I also remind you that we have our monthly call
tomorrow (Thursday, 27 April 2107) at 06:00 UTC?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear All, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During ICANN 58, the ALAC and
Regional Leaders discussed the need for more time
to discuss issues together as a team during ICANN
Meetings or for Working Group Meetings.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In order to open up more time
on the At-Large schedule, a suggestion was made to
begin a pilot to reduce the number of RALO f2f
monthly meetings held during ICANN Meetings, in
particular during the Community Forum (March
Meeting) and the Policy Forum (June Meeting). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The suggestion was that only
the RALO in which the ICANN Meeting is taking
place would be encouraged to hold their monthly
meeting f2f during the ICANN Meeting.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">RALOs who need to plan events
happening either in the months following the ICANN
Meeting or at the next ICANN meeting could hold
informal planning sessions if they wished.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Monthly Meetings of the
RALOs would continue to be held via
teleconference.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The ALAC is requesting that the
RALO leadership ask their regions if there is any
strong feeling
<b><i>not</i></b> to move ahead with this pilot
and <b>report back to the ALAC by Tuesday, 2 May</b>.
</p>
