email me directly their opinions on whether to accept or reject
this ALS. Currently there is no procedure for suspension of an
application or for asking the applicant any questions directly,
but all these are great ideas for the future as we are currently
revising the ALS Criteria. Do please let me know what your
thoughts are. You can write me or Glenn directly.<br class="">

<pre class="">HI All,
We are seeking Regional Advice for a new ALS, The Association of Internet Users
has applied to be an ALS in NARALO. They are brand new organization and as such
they have not done any events but seems to be a very promising organization and
they seem to be committed to supporting the concerns of individual Internet
users' and we think would make a good addition to NARALO. The organization is
chaired for by John Laprise a NARALO member. The ALS criteria team is still
working on creating new criteria for ALSes and also on what will be required so
we are still using the old process. This application and the due diligence that
was conducted were done under the old process and the old criteria.
I have attached this application to you for your review. I would appreciate it
everyone could review this document and send me any comments or thoughts on this
new ALS by August 19. When you write me, please state the ALS you are
representing and if you support or oppose the addition of the Association of
Internet Users to become an ALS in NARALO. I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Judith Hellerstein
NARALO Secretary
