[atlarge-discuss] UPDATE ON PANEL ACTIVITIES
Dear Members of ICANNatlarge.com,
Here are some notes on what is going on in various parts of our organization...
The Panel now has its full complement of members. The new panelists are
Bruce and Edmundo.
The Panel is working to develop a formal voting procedure. This will allow
us to make decisions. We hope to have this by mid-week.
WG-WEB is becoming active again. We are getting a new Coordinator. That
person will initiate the process of reviewing web issues and making
recommendations to the full Panel. The Panel can review the
recommendations and make some final decisions. Thus, we are a few steps
away from making any substantive changes to the web page.
The Panel is waiting for an official report of the election results. It is
my understanding that "ICANNatlarge.org" was the preferred name. I have
seen messages posted to this list, but I haven't seen an official
communication to the Panel. A report was solicited from Walter Schmidt on
September 27, but no reply has been received. (Walter and other watchdogs
-- can we please have a formal statement of voting results. You can send
it to me or to all panel members individually. Thank you!)
Once the Panel receives the results of the name vote, it can use the voting
procedure to decide the name of the organization. The panel seems to be
leaning towards adoption of the top vote-getting name. We have not yet
initiated a formal discussion. We will use the voting procedure to
finalize the name decision.
Once the Panel has decided on a name, and once WG-WEB is functioning, and
once the Panel has approved any changes to the web page, we can implement
our new URL, based on our new name.
Currently, the panel does not have a Chair. As Alt Chair I am performing
some Chair responsibilities. The Panel needs to decide on a new Chair and
is discussing that at present.
The Panel is not currently discussing issues of fundraising, bylaws, and
incorporation. Nor have we addressed an issue that is arguably prior to
this: definition of a mission statement. I expect that we will address
these issues soon. However, the other issues above are currently taking
precedence.
That is where we currently stand. Thanks for your patience in reading
through all this!
Sincerely,
Hans
