Joint Session: ICANN Board and ALAC

Session details: https://sched.co/1vpai

Agenda: 

Board Question to be raised with the ALAC 

• To what extent does the ALAC believe that the CIP Phase 1 was successfully concluded? Please include specific reasons. (Shepherds: Cheryl Langdon-Orr and Bukola Oronti)
• What are the next steps for the ALAC with regard to the CIP? (Shepherds:  Cheryl Langdon-Orr and Bukola Oronti) 

ALAC Issues to be raised with the Board 

• Does the Board remain committed to replacing organizational reviews with a continuous improvement program? A series of events have created roadblocks and delays in this process and the ALAC would like to see it back on the rails. (Shepherd: Cheryl Langdon-Orr) 
• Similarly, the Pilot Holistic Review seems plagued by inaction and delays, further pushing out the actual Holistic Review, recommended by the ATRT3. The ALAC asks whether the Board could consider reverting to the original timeline of 18 months for the PHR. (Shepherd: Sebastien Bachollet)
• Would the Board consider using any evolution of the Operating Standards for Specific Reviews (OSSR) as a test or pilot by ATRT4 and *then* after a proper evaluation, considered by Public Commentary and possibly embedded in a new OSSR? (Jonathan Zuck)
• Could some thought be put into the better utilization of volunteer time though scheduling of Requests for Comments (RFCs) and other measures? (Claire Craig)
