RE: [ga] To the ALAC members


Danny,

All ALAC members have been, and continue to be, accessible through the
posted email address <alac-comments@icann.org>.  This address was assigned
when the Interim ALAC members were appointed to immediately route ALAC email
to Committee members.  It was not publicized as a publicly archived email
address, however, and individuals' emails are not posted publicly without
notice.  Individuals have been encouraged to send their substantive comments
on pending ALAC-related issues to <forum@alac.icann.org> and have been
notified that emails sent to this address will be publicly posted.  When
emails are actually sent to this address, they will be posted -- look for a
link on the ALAC's homepage under the "Comment Forum"
(http://alac.icann.org/) (none have been received as of this morning).

You (and the few others who sent substantive comments to the ALAC via the
non-publicly archived email list) were encouraged to re-send the emails to
the forum address to ensure that you wanted your email publicly archived.
If you find this too burdensome, please send me an email directly and let me
know which of your emails you want posted and they will appear on the ALAC's
website.  (I realize that you enjoy publicly posting your emails, but that
is not the case with everyone, and we need to respect other individual's
desire to contact the Committee, and to offer comments, privately.)

The comment period for draft At-Large Structure criteria/process and RALO
guidelines has been extended.  Comments received by the ALAC on this
document that are not publicly archived will be summarized, and a summary
will be posted on the ALAC's comment forum.

Thank you for your continued interest.

Dear ALAC members (who still don't have your e-mail contact addresses posted
on the ALAC website),

I have some questions regarding the following message I received from Denise
Michel:

The ALAC is instituting a publicly archived forum.  If you would like your
comments to be posted on the ALAC's website, please re-send them to
<forum@alac.icann.org>.  We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate
your patience as the ALAC works with ICANN to make its website, forum, and
other communication mechanisms fully operational.

1.  What is the URL for the forum?  -- it doesn't seem to be published
anywhere
2.  By the way, your website states:  "Welcome to the ALAC Public Comment
Forum. This page is under construction, but will be operational after the
ICANN meeting in Rio de Janeiro, March 23-27 2003."  It's already been a
month since Rio, is this the type of performance we can continue to expect
from your group?
3.  Can you explain why should I have to re-submit my comments to another
address?  I already know that Denise received them, didn't you receive them?
4.  Will comments (present and future) sent to alac-comments@icann.org not
be
archived?  Is this supposed to be a mailbox for non-open and non-transparent
communications?  If not, what is the URL for the alac-comments archive?  I
would assume this to be an address different from that of the unknown forum
address...
5.  As the comment period is now over, how many comments did you receive
pertaining to the criteria for At-Large structures and RALOs?  Who in the
community (if any) expressed support for your initiative?  What is your
assessment of the overall response?

Thanks for looking into this,
Danny
