[NA-Discuss] Call for Statements of Interest | NA RALO Seats on ALAC

[Nick Ashton-Hart]

Just two clarifications to the below:

Firstly, there is a further qualification for ALAC members: that the
members selected must be nationals, or residents, of different
countries in the region.

Of course, many candidates from a single country would be welcomed -
but only one from each could actually be seated.

This comes from the ICANN Bylaws if you are wondering.

Secondly, the election and seating of ALAC representatives is
dependent not upon the adoption of Operating Principles, but on the
agreement of the contents of the MoU with ICANN. Whilst I'm sure from
the discussions here that the region does want to have Operating
Principles, this is not strictly speaking necessary to elect ALAC
representatives.
