Garth Bruen: (13:20) In principle I am against the legislating down to the ALS or placing restrictions on their participation.
judith hellerstein: (13:21) I like to have 3. One is just too problematic
Garth Bruen: (13:21) These are volunteer groups with other obligations and lack of funding.
Gisella Gruber: (13:25) The document is unlocked
Dev Anand Teelucksingh: (13:25) sounds like construction going on
Olivier Crepin-Leblond: (13:26) It's the community tearing down ICANN! :-)

judith hellerstein: (13:34) can you unsynch this
Heidi Ullrich: (13:35) Finance wiki: https://icann-community.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/projfinadhocws/pages/106629200/At+Large+-+FY17+Additional+Budget+Requests
Dev Anand Teelucksingh: (13:35) never heard of the LACRALO request
Rinalia Abdul Rahim: (13:35) have the items been analyzed to see which item should actually go into the annual ops budget and as non special request? should
Glenn McKnight: (13:36) @Dev what do you mean you didn't know about the proposal. Was it not a discussion with your RALO?
Dev Anand Teelucksingh: (13:36) No, this is the first time I've heard of this
Glenn McKnight: (13:36) Perhaps Alberto can explain it
Glenn McKnight: (13:37) I think alot of the financial requests were outside the scope of the fbsc mandate
judith hellerstein: (13:37) i agree with you glenn
Rinalia Abdul Rahim: (13:38) I suggest raising these "non special but key items" with Cherine when you talk about summit budgets.
Glenn McKnight: (13:38) Perhaps we need to have clear rules on what is funded
judith hellerstein: (13:38) can we get alberto to explain the lacralo
Rinalia Abdul Rahim: (13:38) yes to board as well
Garth Bruen: (13:39) Alan, I have a quick AOB

Laura Bengford: (13:44) the ALS applications will remain on the existing site and we link out to this. just FYI
Laura Bengford: (13:45) A full report on Accessibility for At Large and icann.org is in Basecamp. Working with Cheryl, Gunela and Accessibility WG on moving to WIKI
Eduardo Diaz: (13:46) We have been working on this for more than a year now. Lets put it alive. These things are very dynamic. T
judith hellerstein: (13:46) The question was why did LACRALO not go thru the FSBC and submit directly to finance
Laura Bengford: (13:46) The website will continue to evolve, content can continue to be added. That is normal
Seun Ojedeji: (13:47) Website are usually work in progress and i think its when we actually start using it that we may discover other things requiring attention. So question is that do we still have support for a period of time aftter launch?
Laura Bengford: (13:48) That is true Seun, even yesterday with task force we were still finding little things and wording changes. These are some of the examples of small things we need to find and fix quickly as we go. Thanks Alan for showing these examples.
Eduardo Diaz: (13:48) We can catch up the things that are missing as we go. I do not see any CRITICAL items that will hold the lucnh of this website.
Eduardo Diaz: (13:48) launche
Vanda Scartezini: (13:49) i am mute for some time to avoid external noise around the office.
Laura Bengford: (13:50) Agreed
Seun Ojedeji: (13:50) Yes to launch, its long overdue ;-)
Glenn McKnight: (13:50) please launch

Heidi Ullrich: (13:53) @Alberto, the question is not on the General Assembly
Seun Ojedeji: (13:53) Big Applause to Ariel and team
Heidi Ullrich: (13:53) It is on a new request submitted for a Capacity Building session on DNSSEC
Glenn McKnight: (13:53) its the post FBSC request
Vanda Scartezini: (13:54) Alberto is right LACRALO needs to get together to set up all items that are making LACRALO not functional
judith hellerstein: (13:55) that was not the question. the question is why bypass the fscbc with the one item
judith hellerstein: (13:55) all items from at large should be brought to the fsbc
Glenn McKnight: (13:55) @Judith i agree the point is lost in the discussion
Eduardo Diaz: (13:55) @VAnda: Can they do it while in Marakesh?
Rinalia Abdul Rahim: (13:56) sounds reasonable, Garth.
Glenn McKnight: (13:56) @garth was a reply to Fadi's letter
judith hellerstein: (13:56) Doing an end-run around the FSBC makes ALAC/At large look bad
