<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I wanted to let you know that the ALAC is preparing a strong
statement to the ICANN Board expressing concern about the lack of sufficient
public participation in Cairo.  In addition, the new Board Participation
Committee has been convened so your written input delivered now would be
particularly helpful and timely.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU>In today’s GNSO wrap up session a number of
folks voiced their dissatisfaction with the manner in which the ICANN Public
Forum session was conducted. This dissatisfaction centred around the lack of
time made available for the public to engage the ICANN Board during the ONLY
time that is dedicated to this on the Meeting schedule, especially during this
incredibly busy and important time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU>There were also a number of other issues,
such as the inadequate mechanisms for public participation, that has prompted
Avri to suggest a letter be drafted expressing these views and that this letter
be sent to the ICANN Board.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU>To this end I would like to hear from those
that would like to participate in joining a small Drafting Team to get the
letter drafted in advance of the Mexico Meeting.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-AU><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
