meets the necessary criteria to involve individual Internet users at the
local or issue level in ICANN activities, and that your organization will
support its individual members' informed participation in ICANN efforts
that affect end-users.

>> The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between
your organization, other ALS, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your
input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated.
