Vittorio,

I note in the 6 September ALAC Conference Call Minutes
that the ALAC self-review is progressing and that by
now Sebastian's first draft should have been
completed.

I call to your attention the following assessment of
the ALAC that has emerged from the WSIS process:

"Recognizing that the ICANN At-Large Advisory
Committee (ALAC) is an inadequate attempt to give
representation to the relatively unorganized
constituency of users, this should be remedied in the
very near term."
http://www.itu.int/wsis/docs2/pc3/contributions/sca/SouthCentre-23.doc

As the ALAC continues to be not much more than a very
pale version of Non-Commercial Constituency, have you
at all considered the possibility of merging with
NCUC? 

I believe that the At-Large can find a better avenue
for representation within the ICANN process through
recourse to a General Assembly approach (similar to
that which was available under the old DNSO).

When can we expect your self-review to become public?

Best regards,
Danny
