[alac-comments] The Accra Resolution

[DannyYounger@xxxxxx]

Dear members of the ALAC,

Your current proposal (with its focus on individual users) seems to stand at 
odds with the definition of the At-Large as articulated in the Accra 
Resolution:

"Whereas, the Board believes that the At Large community properly defined 
embraces the full range of Internet users, including not only individual 
users, but also academic institutions, small businesses, non-commercial 
entities of various kinds, including consumer groups, and various other 
non-governmental organizations, all of which have a legitimate interest in, 
and a need for workable mechanisms for informed participation in, the ICANN 
policymaking process;"

How do you reconcile your view of the At-Large with the stated definition 
supplied by the Board?

By the way, with regard to your proposal, will you be requiring an academic 
institution to demonstrate the identity of all of its individual 
constituents?  Will you be asking a business to demonstrate the identity of 
all of its employees?
