[Metrics.SC] Metrics framework

[Cheryl Langdon-Orr]

Slight 'course correction'  the Metrics WG needs to focus  NOW (pre Prague
and Final ALAC Improvements Implementation Reporting etc., ) on ALAC Member
Metrics But  the ALSes (and yes even RALO Leadership expectations  need to
still be addressed  with the ALS criteria  falling under ALAC  mandate  to
"establish"  *with the Regional / RALO Leadership of course*  as it is ALAC
 that has the deligated authority to accredit  ( and one presumes
 mainatian accreditation)  of ALSes  on behalf of ICANN...  So  this would
contitute  NEXT parts of our work plan (post Prague pre Toronto Meeting...
 With I assume  main focus  with the Regional Leadership and the ALSes
 happening  on these matters during that time as well...  How the RALOs
establish criteria  for their Leadership team(s)  { including their
appointed ALAC Members  one assumes}  will be built  in a way that reflects
 both the ALAC and the ALSes performance and participation expectations one
assumes  but is  probably the final ( if not parallel step in our work
plan) ....  As Alan says  some ALS "metrics" are established ( but not
measured, checked  or audited  post accreditation at this stage) based on
the 'expectations  set for ALSes and of course the by-law expectations of
ALAC and At-Large....

Review of effectiveness and purpose of ALSes ( and one assumes the RALOs
 that they form is slatted for focus on in the next 'ALAC Review' when the
model is again "looked at" this is scheduled for prep work in 2013 and
Review start in 2014  so NOT long at all IMO
