5. Selection of Teleconference times 2012.

A discussion was held to decide if the time for the monthly teleconference should be changed. It was decided to change the meetings to the first Thursday of each month at 07:00 UTC, to accommodate as many time zones as possible, and keeping within the Secretariat working hours.

6. Location of 2012 face-to-face meeting

A discussion was held about the when the face-to-face meeting would occur.

Timing of meeting in relation to ICANN Board Selection procedure was considered as follows.

A) First, the possibility of having the meeting during either the Interview or Selection phase for the ICANN Seat 9 appointment was discussed.

B) Comments that planning a meeting too near the end of any phase could be problematic.

C) It was decided that more AC members would be able to attend a meeting during the Selection phase, and that the Interview Committee could hold their interviews at a date and place to be determined. The AC could then review the interviews during the face-to-face meeting.

In order to accommodate as many people as possible to attend the face-to-face meeting, it was decided the meeting would be held in Vancouver on 26-27 April.

HG was opposed as he was unavailable, but said he was able to join the meeting remotely. A roll call vote was held. FA was having difficulty with her connection, and voted over chat.

It was moved that the face-to-face meeting be held in held in Vancouver on 26-27 April.

8 voted, 7 in favor, conditional yes from HG that he can join remotely

Sofia Silva left at 10:40 UTC +10

7. Selection of Individuals to the ICANN Board of Directors

Chair mentions: (from previous minutes)

A) Qualification Review Committee (QRC). Committee Members are: AB, SB,

TF, HPH, RdS

Chair said there are four qualified candidates. Comment period has begun, and the website is updated with their names.

Before the comment period opened, there was concern about how to deal with comments that could be defamatory. The IC asked the Secretariat to post comments and forward questionable comments to IC for moderation.

Interview phase begins on 20 February, Chair asked for input from QRC, or other members.

HG noted that the minutes don’t correctly reflect the members of the IC committee – HG has stepped out of committee, SB is in committee.

A motion was put in place to add this amendment to the previously approved minutes. The motion was approved by unanimity of the 8 members of the ASO AC present at the moment in the conference.

(New Action Item: 0802-02) The Secretariat was asked to update January minutes to show that SB is in IC, not HG.

Committee members are: AB, NA, RdS, SB, HPH.

8. Updates to Operating Procedures
It was noted that not enough members (4/5 of the entire AC) were present to discuss updates to the ASO AC operating procedures.

(New Action Item: 0802-03) The Chair will send to list message about needing 4/5 of all AC members’ approval for this item.

9. Any Other Business.

The Chair noted he is working with Secretariat and ON to finalize program details for the ICANN meeting coming up in March.

HG asked if there would be a meeting with the SSR review team and the AC during the ICANN meeting, and suggested the SSR review team should instead meet with the NRO EC.

ON noted the SSR review team is still in drafting stage, and that the possibility of a meeting was a question for the AC. He agreed, however, that perhaps it’s more appropriate for the SSR Review team to meet with the EC as the actions from the review would be given by the EC.

In a discussion, HG noted that the meeting should be with the NRO EC not ASO AC as the implementations are actions for the EC. ON agreed.

(New Action Item: 0802-04) The Chair to cc the NRO EC, in a reply to an email from HG, in support of a discussion between the review team and the NRO EC.

Seeing that there was no other business, the Chair moved to adjourn.

There were none opposed.

10. Adjournment

The Chair adjourned the meeting at 11:11 (UTC+10).
