[NA-Discuss] Next Meeting of the NA RALO

[Danny Younger]

Perhaps instead we should have a discussion on why
this body and all other ICANN RALOs are abject
failures.  Collectively they have neither raised user
issues in a timely fashion, nor have they participated
in the development of policy to cure untenable
situations.

Their only skill set appears to be petitioning for
even more funding to attend WSIS/IGF, ICANN
Studenkreis, or other such events.

When Vittorio put out the call for comments on
revisions to the RAA, how many out of the 100+ ALSs
responded?  If you guessed almost none, you would be
correct.

ICANN is spending almost $800,000 yearly on ALAC and
RALOs.  So far, I see absolutely no return on
investment to justify this expenditure.

As you might guess, I'm looking forward to the ALAC
review.  It's time for this organization to receive a
proper burial.
