 Dear Amer and Hilmi, 

 ICANN's At-Large Advisory
 Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that Yemeni
 Organization for Development and Exchange Technology has
 been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS).  The ALAC
 greatly appreciates
  your group's interest in involving individual users
 in APRALO and ICANN and looks forward to working with you
 and your colleagues.

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

 It’s very important to keep the
 members of your organization informed (about significant
 news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development
 efforts) and engaged in activities of interest. Here are
  a few of the tools members of At-Large find
 useful: 

 The At-Large wiki space is where
 you can find most of the relevant information: 

 The At-Large
 introductory page help you navigate through the wiki
 contents. This is where you can find the latest
 announcements,
  and subscribe to the At-Large
 Google calendar at the bottom of the page. This will
 ensure you never miss a meeting! 

 From any chosen page in the
 At-Large wiki, you can find your bearings easily by
 navigating via the purple box at the top left hand corner of
 the page. It is very convenient to be able to consult the
 latest At-Large
  Policy Development Activity, find out more about
 the Regional
 At-Large Organizations (RALOs), and about At-Large
  Working Groups.  For the most up to date information
 about At-Large meetings during ICANN Public meetings, it is
 worth bookmarking this
 wiki page! 

 Regional wiki
 webpages also
 have been created to distribute information (including in
 local languages) on activities, events and issues of
 particular interest to
  people in each region. These are maintained by the
 community. They are: 

 African Region: http://www.afralo.org

 Asia/Australia/Pacific
 Region: http://www.apralo.org

 European Region: http://www.euralo.org 

 Latin America/Caribbean
 Region:  http://www.lacralo.org

 North American
 Region: http://www.naralo.org 

 At-Large Mailing
 Lists. There are
 many At-Large email lists, for each region, you can sign up
 to them and manage your subscriptions at: 
 http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo.
 The primary and secondary points of contact you have
 identified in the application form will automatically
  be added to your region's list just for accredited
 ALSes to discuss regional issues and to the mailing list for
 Staff announcements (only Staff can post messages to that
 list); you are invited to join others as you
 wish. 

 ALAC website. The ALAC website  is
 a good source for ICANN news and information of interest to
 individual Internet users.  We
  encourage you to provide your members with a link.  The
 ALAC relies on volunteers to translate information into
 multiple languages. Translations of documents on the website
 are welcome and should be sent to  At-Large
  staff.  

 ICANN website: The ICANN website is where
 all announcements  are
 posted, and where
  you can find practical information about ICANN Public
 meetings. 

 Skype chat: At-Large community members and
 staff use Skype group chats extensively. A group chat exists
 for most Working Groups and RALOs. So please don¹t hesitate
  to send At-Large Staff your Skype ID and we’ll gladly add
 you to the relevant chats. Please click here  if you don¹t
 have a Skype account. It’s free and staff are available to
 help if you run into any trouble. 

 Facebook: The At-Large community has its
 own Facebook
 page. It’s useful to keep up with announcements
  and helpful information. 

 Twitter: Members of At-Large tweet
 extensively and are particularly active during ICANN Public
 meetings. Follow At-Large
  on Twitter! 

 We will forward the At-Large
 Beginners’ guide shortly, as it is in the process of being
 updated. In the meantime, please refer to the most recent
 APRALO
 Orientation Call. You may also like to refer to the
 APRALO wiki
 space for further engagement opportunities. 

 We look forward to working with
 you and your organization's members to advance
 individual Internet users' interests within ICANN.  If
 you have any questions, or need additional information,
 please contact
  us at staff at atlarge.icann.org.

 Sincerely, 

 The At-Large Advisory
 Committee
