[APAC-Discuss] APRALO ALSs active participation - Members included in the WIKI page - Teleconference

Fri Sep 6 04:10:50 UTC 2013

I'm delighted with our new Members joining I must say... and of course more
are welcome...

As we set out on our initial meeting(s)   Noting the doodle will be sent
out soon to all of us who volunteered, to aid us in the best selection of
time and date for us to teleconference... Actually I would like to propose
that we will use an Adobe Connect room as well as phone bridge for our
meetings and I will request that the AC room is set up to allow  audio
connection as well to aid any of us who want to use that method, that way
we can share documentation  or screens etc.,)  We can discuss other
collaboration in more detail when we gather...

I wonder however if we night approach this WG in a "open design' as we do
in some ALAC and several GNSO Work Groups... That is we will focus on
ensuring all our work is captured (if not created from time to time) in the
wiki spaces we have access to and that therefore any one reading a page can
comment and contribute to our work, and also that whilst we will be "the
core WG Members" and be responsible for drafting etc.,  that we also  (once
we set one up and i suggest we do) have a topic based email list for the WG
=> we allow any other  interested parties  (from our region and indeed
beyond) to subsribe to our list and be recorded as  <observers or
preferably  'subscribed to list'>  so that our work is as open and
transparent and inclusive as possible but perhaps *more importantly*  that
we can continuously gain input from our community as we progress our work...

What do you all think?  No need to decide now  we will make this a matter
for discussion and decision at our first meeting  but do take time to
consider...

Staff  can you let me/us know when a WG and initial meeting page is set up
for this WG to oporate in and I will put up a simple draft Agenda for our
initial gathering...
