[EURO-Discuss] Regional Advice Needed / 294 BIKLAB

[Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond]

Dear Colleagues,

in early June we received an application for ALS from an organisation
called BIKLAB, based in Guadeloupe. The application had initially gone
to LACRALO by error and this was finally forwarded to EURALO - as
Guadeloupe is French Overseas Region in the Caribbean.
The application form contains personal details and confidential
information that cannot be shared on a public mailing list, but if you
are interested in looking at it, please email me and I'll forward it to
you. In the meantime, I have asked EURALO leadership, that is, EURALO
Board and appointees, directly by email, whether they have any
objections to ratification of this organisation as an ALS. After some
discussion regarding funding of this organisation (they are self-funding
but had indicated otherwise by error), there were no objections to
ratification of this organisation.
In addition to this, since this organisation is located physically in
the LACRALO region, we have struck a deal with LACRALO whereas members
of BIKLAB could also participate in LACRALO activities as Observers.
BIKLAB would retain its voting right in EUROPE only.

So -- to summarise, if you'd like to have a look at the application,
email me directly and I'll forward it to you by email. Otherwise, I'll
give a last chance to discuss this during our EURALO monthly call
tomorrow and then if there are no objections, I'll proceed with letting
At-Large Staff know that the recommendation from EURALO to the ALAC is
to ratify BIKLAB as an ALS.

Kindest regards,

Olivier
