Whatever group or person comes with a recommendation with whatever template which comes out, as part of the recommendation, we should assign one champion to it to follow through. That’s one way to get them engaged and not disappear.

If we’re going to do something like this in ATLAS III, I would have some kind of template. I will ask the recommendation to think about it. Explicitly tell us in which context you’re putting this, who you think this is allocated to, so it’s not… because some of these recommendations when you read them, it’s like somebody said something and you just put it in. You have to be more specific.

Post ATLAS II Implementation Taskforce meeting in ICANN54 Dublin on :
Every recommendation should assign one champion to follow through, and this is one way to get ATLAS participants engaged.
Those champions can be the chairs, subject matter experts, moderators, assistant moderators, reporters, and assistant reporters of the thematic groups. If they are no longer interested in following up or have no time, the entire thematic groups need to be called upon to contribute.
- The thematic groups need to be reconvened, provided a status update on the recommendation implementation, and asked for feedback. The status update can take the form of webinar, with one webinar session per thematic group. Before the webinar, various tasks need to be prepared so they can be matched with individuals. During the webinar, in addition to reporting status, volunteers should get assigned for tasks in order to move the process forward and have more active people working.
There should be a template for ATLAS recommendations, which explicitly explains the context of the recommendation, to whom it is allocated, and other specifics. It should also include evaluation criteria to define success in implementing those recommendations, and this will help close/complete recommendations.
- We should consider managing the recommendation implementation process and set priorities to tackle them on a yearly basis; we should not attempt to cover them all at once.
