[Jacqueline A. Morris]

Basically, the text in original language is in a link below the 
translated text.
But in short, my concern is that after 2 years, and quite a few 
translated documents, there are still no comments on anythingn coming 
out from the LACRALO. Others in ICANN and outside are looking at the 
funding spent on translations for LACRALO and asking - what more do we 
need to start commenting.
Remember it is a global oprgnaisation - there may be pressures to say - 
hey, it might be a better use of the funding to translate more documents 
into Chinese, for example, as APRALO is quite active on certain topics 
(IDNs and IPv6 are two of their major issues)
After 2 years LACRALO NEEDS to make a start on a policy issue. There 
have been comments on processes, but not on policy.
The policy team is providing briefings where questions can be answered 
via the Adobe Connect tool, with a Spanish channel. Often the Spanish 
channel is empty. The sessions are archived, but I don't know if anyone 
in LACRALo is looking at them.
ICANN is about making policy to run the Internet. Things are happening 
all the time. There is no need to comment on everything, but on 
something would be useful. The language isn't even such an issue as once 
the document is translated, then the entire discussion can take place in 
Spanish and the comment can be sent in Spanish. There are also English 
speaking ALSes who rarely comment either. ALL ALSes need a kick in the 
pants to get going!
Remember that the entire ALAC structure is an experiment and there are 
MANY who think it won't work, and they are already using the lack of 
feedback from some regions as a reason to say - see, it isn't working. 
If you want LACRALO to continue and to have the region have a voice in 
the process, the LACRALO needs to move forward.
There are also those who are looking at the ALAC and the RALOs and the 
ALSes and saying - hey, what have they done? Are they really part of 
this organisation or not? They haven't participated at all. Are they 
just a long listing of ALSes to pad the ALAC, or are they really giving 
us individual user feedback?
If these nay-sayers are backed up by ANY evidence that the ALSes really 
aren't participating, the At Large will be in real trouble. (And they 
are getting it!)
So I am sending emails to try to get the URGENCY of this situation out 
to the LACRALO - others are doing the same for AFRALO. The other RALOs 
are doing better!
Rather than attacking me personally, it would be much better for all of 
you in LACRALO for you to turn that energy towards getting some stuff 
done so that it is easier to defend the At Large structure system 
against the many many  groups and individuals that are opposed to it in 
its current structure and with its current resources.
