[ALAC] [NA-ALS] List consolidation proposal

[Luc Faubert]

I also agree with Wendy's proposal for list consolidation and use of ICANNwiki.

I suggest the following changes to the names of the lists however:

  alac -> atlarge
  alac-internal -> alac

As for North America, let's keep na-discuss and eliminate na-als, as Wendy suggests,
