Major outcomes of the meeting as reported to the AP-Discuss List were:
1. APTLD IDN Fast-track Proposal: Keith Davidson (on behalf of APTLD) summarised the rationale behind their proposal. The general consensus at the teleconference was that APRALO should support the APTLD proposal, based on the fact that the AP region is likely the region with the greatest need for an IDN solution. The following motion was put forth: 'That APRALO support the "very limited and controlled approach" for an allocation of ccTLD IDN's, as proposed by the APTLD, for a FastTrack allocation of ccTLD IDN's, while ICANN goes through their more extensive Policy Development Process; and to vocally show this support at the ICANN meeting in LA.' Proposed: Cheryl Langdon-Orr: Seconded: Gary Soo The comment period is 9 September 2007 to 19 September 2300GMT. Voting Period Start: 20 September 2007nbspnbsp End: 25 September 2007 2359GMT. The APTLD statement is available at[https://stcommunity.icann.org/display/asiapacalacasiapac/index.cgi?28_august_28+August+2007]
2. APRALO 2008 Physical Meetings: One meeting at ICANN Asia Pacific Meeting. Second meeting proposed during IGF 2008 in Delhi. APRALO and APTLD are currently in the process of seeking mutual grounds of engagement and collaboration (APRALO has a Working Group to this effect). APTLD (through Don Hollander, General Manager) has indicated that they will likely hold a regular meeting during IGF 2008 and suggested it would be an opportune time to stage a joint APRALO/APTLD meeting. This concept met with general approval at the Teleconference. A motion to hold this meeting will be proposed at the September Teleconference.
