      • CCWG-Accountability WS2 Final Report
        The ALAC noted that the assurance of full consistency between all of the recommendations - which are noted in the report to be more than 100 - would depend primarily on the interpretation of the recommendations and the implementation plan. The ALAC recommends dedicating enough time to ensure inconsistencies do not result due to misinterpretation of the recommendations. 
      • Draft Final Report of the NomCom2 Review
        On the whole, the ALAC believes the ICANN NomCom system has been working well considering the significant challenges it faces.

        Overall, the ALAC agreed with the Interim Compliance Model’s tiered access approach, while remaining divided on several other issues including purposes of processing WHOIS data, applying the Interim Model on a global basis, and distinction between legal and natural persons.

      • Draft Procedure for Community gTLD Change Requests

      • ICANN Fellowship Program Community Consultation
        The ALAC suggested that changes (i.e. metrics to gauge ROI, tracking outreach and engagement of the Fellows in their respective communities) are required in order to achieve greater effectiveness of the Program, not only to meet At-Large policy goals relating to the DNS.ICANN Reserve Fund: Proposed Replenishment Strategy 
        The ALAC supports the overall strategy, with several important conditions related to operational savings, auction proceeds, per-domain registrar fees and revenue.
