- What is the purpose of this table?

#4 Universal Acceptance (00:20 / 00:50)
- General discussion: ← Eduardo
- What is the final outcome that ALAC wants from the RALOs on this issue?
- Is there a timeline for this or is this going to be an on-going open issue?
- Is this policy related? If not, why the importance? Outreach?
- This may take volunteer effort from the RALOs which may take away the focus from policy.
- There is the notion of a UA Pilot project HERE with the following statement:
",,,the Regional Leaders of the At-Large community committed to participating in a program of widespread outreach to end users, to engage them in testing applications and websites around the world and reporting those that fail to accept top-level domains (TLDs) longer than 3 characters, or in non-Latin scripts (International Domain Names, or IDNs). "
- Are we really committed to do so?
- Who is going to lead that effort?
- This is not policy related and is mostly for Outreach
- This seem to be a big endeavor which may take RALO'S volunteer time and effort resulting in shifting focus from policy.
- Consensus call to reach agreement on requesting ALAC to manage this effort from a existing/new Working Group (WG):
- It will be more effective since it can be managed from a single point
- Each RALO can appoint a single volunteer to this group
- WG should no be more that 5 volunteers. One of them selected to be the Chair.
- Evin Erdogdu/John Laprise to share the contacts of the UASG presenters with the SMWG / At-Large RALO leaders. Presenters requested the RALO leaders share the link in the presentation.
- Follow-up Discussion: ← Eduardo
- How many RALO leaders received these contacts?
- Heidi Ullrich/Silvia Vivanco to put UASG Ambassadors in each region in touch with RALO leaders.
- Follow-up Discussion: ← Eduardo

- General discussion: ← Eduardo
- What is the purpose of the blog?
- What is the blog about?
- Where is it going to be written?
- Is each RALO writing an individual blog?
- What happens after the blog is written?
- Consensus call to reach agreement on requesting ALAC to write the blog and then be promoted through the regions via newsletters and/or similar channels:
- A more cohesive message
- Less effort in coordinating the implementation of writing the blog
