If you schedule it your morning, well, that would be it for me :).
I can do either 1900 or 2000 UTC.

Even though I have no "hard" clash with 19:00 UTC, 20:00 UTC would be
better.

next Monday so that time does not suit me. As staff has requested that the
agenda be set at least one week before the date of the meeting, I encourage
your efforts to include the region while preparing for your agenda. All of
us are unpaid volunteers but when we accept an elected position we accept
extra responsibilities and become accountable to those who elected us to do
the job that we were elected for.

have comments about any of the subject in these e-mails, I would encourage
you to bring them forward. Also, if anybody has any suggestions as to
alternative times so as to make Beau's life a little easier, please do
suggest them. Perhaps 20:00 UTC would be better? I encourage everybody's
comments.

late afternoons. It would be helpful if we can find an hour that does not

plan due to circumstances involving repairs to my car. The meeting is
scheduled for a time when I will be in the car, driving, and not capable of
chairing a meeting.

plans, unless they involve extensions of airline ticketing and travel dates

concerns about the region at the moment, which I have been having to deal
with, unfortunately, while on vacation with my family; then I ask the
region's tolerance for the request to postpone the meeting for a week. I
have also received complaints from a member of the region who does not like
the proposed time change, so we are attempting to address that. And thanks
to the region -- I am absolutely delighted at the building of the agenda.
This makes the regional meetings much more productive and worthwhile for
everyone.

Garth Bruen,; SOI: NARALO Chair
Hello NARALO,
I would like to put forward my SOI for the NARALO Chair. Not because I am
dissatisfied in any way with current leadership, but because I want express
my commitment to this group and its goals.
I have been an active participant in NARALO for several years attending six
ICANN meetings, all self-funded with the exception of two. I believe my work
is directly geared towards advocacy for the Internet user at-large as well
as to holding ICANN accountable and transparent. As NARALO Chair I would
expand user involvement and elevate the importance of public disclosure.
Research conducted by my organization and its members have resulted in
unprecedented changes and discoveries with the Internet architecture, and I
hope to expand this work.
Thank you.
