<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">I am concerning about the future with, for me not so clear, real role of RALOs under this proposal.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">I have real concerning about rapporteur reporting to ALAC directly and also about , in my view, individuals possibly totally disconnected from the Ralo focus on policy matters.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">Another point not good for me is allow voting for Ralo positions with just 3 months participating... Ralos will become more and more irrelevant and I do not see this as an improvement for the organization.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">From my view, anyone reporting in any policy working group they like to be participant and send directly to ALAC, looks like quite difficult to organize, there is no sharing of information to region
neither feedback from and in the end will lose the sense of what is important for that specific region….regarding to policy.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">I like the idea of free individual’s participation but with a stronger connection with the Ralos if they want to become rapporteurs, candidates or voting members of any Ralo.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic""> I am also in favor to take rapporteurs to ICANN meetings, but this must be on issues and themes aligned with regional interest and after the report is done and debated with regional community.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">From my view Ralo shall be the one sending the report of any policy to ALAC, with the name of the rapporteur registered of course.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic"">Good ideas in the report that need some discussion to see how they can be implemented.

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here's an idea for an alternative proposal for At-Large to the EMM model proposed in the At-Large Review<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
My thoughts - The proposed EMM has flaws. Some immediate ones :<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><br>
- it destroys the community and with that, the consensus building of community with replacement
<br>
of individuals with even less ties to the public community. Such individuals will promote and collude with other individuals to keep themselves in the loop. Also, with many of the policy discussions in GNSO being English, this permanently eliminates persons
from developing/emerging economies from non-English from ever participating.<br>
- given that any individual could already participate in GNSO, we would be no different from such random individuals
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- it removes the mandate on oversight and accountability on ICANN activities from end user interests<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- a thousand individuals in one large country will override 10 individuals from a small country so there will be less diversity in the EMM model only from those countries with large number of individuals.
<br>
- Nomcom appointees to ALAC new to ICANN will serve as Liasions to other groups is not sensible
<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">There are many more problems but I want to focus on a IMO a better At-Large model than the EMM one:<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- ICANN establishes At-Large Chapters in each country similiar in concept to Rotary or ISOC chapters.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- each chapter is open to anyone interested in ICANN from the interests of end users.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- ICANN can set guidelines for each chapter - some examples: must do certain level of outreach, have term limits, have a public F2F awareness meeting to recruit new persons. ICANN would need to provide some funding to make this happen but
this would be small and the chapters can account to ICANN for expenses. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- ICANN can provide the tools (mailing lists, conference tools) to facilitate online discussions.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Because there is a consistent brand - At-Large Chapter in the country, marketing/promoting is
<br>
greatly simplified and easier to explain. <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">- Given that such chapters are virtual, it makes chapters easy to establish with only a few individuals from a country without the challenges of having formal organisations with bylaws and pay taxes.<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">So an At-Large chapter ends up being a virtual ALS in each country in the ALAC/RALO/ALS model.
<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">The RALOs will consist of the chapters from each country in the region with each chapter electing two persons to coordinate the RALO work. The RALO will be better positioned to better fulfil its MOUs with ICANN
and the RALO and ALAC would not have to bother with analysing whether an organisation meets the criteria of an ALS.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The At-Large chapters will be better able to network with At-Large chapters in other countries and build consensus on policy issues and help promote and grow the At-Large Community.
