Status of open actions 12-4 RIRs/IANA: Circulate draft resource request procedure document to AC -- OPEN (IANA sent document back to the RIRs with comments, RIRs will review the comments and get back to IANA) 0101-3 SEC: determine costs for public listening facilities (low priority) -- OPEN 0105-3 HPH: to re-submit changed text (acknowledgement of receipt of the McFadden/Holmes report) as agreed -- DONE New ACTION 0109-2 RIRs: to announce RIR stats to ICANN and other appropriate lists 0105-7 SEC: to compile a list of attendees of upcoming meetings for 2001/2002 (long-term action) -- OPEN (AC members sent their schedule, SEC needs to compile the information) 0105-8 SEC: to co-ordinate with the RIRs to decide when the next ASO GA will take place The initial idea was to organise the ASO AGM 2002 in conjunction with an open policy meeting in the APNIC region. One will take place in March, one in September. The first one seems to be too early, the second one too late (for ICANN Board elections). RP points out that we could have two ASO AGMs next year, e.g. one in conjunction with the IETF in Yokohama in July 2002 and then another one next to the second APNIC meeting in September. RP also offers to host another an AGM in the ARIN region in March 2002. It was pointed out that it might be useful to organise an ASO AGM in the region the newly elected ICANN Board member needs to come from. Since it is Rob Blokzijls seat that will become availble, it was suggested to organise the ASO AGM next to the RIPE 42 meeting in May in AMsterdam. MK suggested to co-ordinate with PW before a final decision is made. AML asks the RIRs to inform ICANN about the final decision. 0106-2 HPH: to send list of AC chair tasks to the AC mailing list -- DONE (HPH sent a list prior to this AC telephone conference) 0106-3 all AC members: discuss how to divide AC chair tasks -- OPEN (this will be further disccussed on the mailing list) CJW and BR point out that it was not concluded yet who the co-chairs will be. CJW would like to formally step down as a co-chair as she will not be able to commit the time necessary for such a task. It was suggested to elect co-chairs after agreeing on the tasks. 0106-4 WW: send additional disclaimer text to CJW to be included in the proposed process for AC chair nomination and election -- DONE (see WWs mail from 3 August 2001) New ACTION 0109-3 CJW: to discuss additional text suggested by WW and incorporate it in the proposed 'Process for AC chair nomination and election' 0106-7 HPH and BR: to draft a presentation for Vint Cerf and the ICANN board. Send it to the AC for review. Then Vint can decide if he thinks this would be useful to show to the board -- OPEN 0107-1 RP to draft ASO 0 in full. Draft to be posted to the AC -- OPEN (see agenda item 6. Report from APNIC Meeting) 0107-2 BR to organise the formation of a committee (all three RIRs plus 1 AC member per region) to co-ordinate the documentation of global policy -- OPEN (see agenda item 6. Report from APNIC Meeting) 0107-3 HPH to draft message of intent describing the timeframe and further process for regional discussion regarding the documentation of global policy -- OPEN (see agenda item 6. Report from APNIC Meeting) 0107-4 WW to summarise & propose further action regarding DNSO whois survey -- CLOSED (overtaken by events, deadline passed) 0107-5 HPH to acknowledge receipt of DNSO invitation to participate in whois survey (co-ordinate with AP) -- CLOSED (overtaken by events) 0107-6 AC to send their travel plans for upcoming meetings to SEC within one week -- DONE 0107-7 ALL: answer to LACNIC by 20th of July regarding meeting time preferences -- (see agenda item 8.

Report from open policy meeting in Taipei, Taiwan, August 2001 MK: There were active discussions about IPv4 and IPv6 policies. Concerns were raised about the idea to create an ASO document series. People felt more comfortable using the existing RIR document stores. BR confirms this, there was more resistance to that idea than she had anticipated. People were concerned that the AC itself would write documents. MK clarifies that the proposed documents would still be published, but in the existing regional document stores. The RIRs will make sure publication and updates are co-ordinated. It was agreed to continue to publish documents in the regional document series. In addition HPH suggested to create an index of global policy documents on the ASO site. MK further reports that the process of re-writing RFC2050 was discussed with a small group (Seung Min Lee and Takashi Arano were also present) at the APNIC meeting. It has been agreed that the RIRs would write draft documents for review by an editorial committee and the wider committee rather than trying to produce the initial draft documents by committee. HPH describes the process for re-writing the regional IPv4 policy document currently used in the RIPE region: The RIPE NCC has drafted a document, HPH as the chair of the LIR-WG is co-ordinating an editorial committee for an initial review. He suggests to use this model also for global documents. No objections. HPH is concerned about the timeframe for the global documents to replace RFC2050. MK notes that these will be several documents. A number of the documents topics currently in RFC2050 are or will be covered by other documents. RP explains that the RIRs already made the effort to review RFC2050 and divided it into policy, procedures etc. New ACTION 0109-4 HPH: to send a message to ac-coord with list of global policy and/or procedure documents that need to be written, global policy and/or procedure documents that need to be written, including deadlines (in co-ordination with the RIRs). 7. Preparations for ICANN Meeting in Montevideo MK wonders if the ASO/AC is asked to report during the ICANN meeting. RB mentions that there is an open ASO scheduled for this coming Saturday, HPH suggests to use this to listen to input from the committee if there is nothing else prepared. GV offers to give a more detailed status report about LACNIC (bylaws, policy documents, relation with ARIN etc.) 8. AC attendance at upcoming meetings & 9. Physical AC meeting HG suggests the following meeting schedule: 7 November 2001: open LACNIC policy meeting in Sao Paolo 8 November 2001: AC Meeting in Sao Paolo 9 - 10 November 2001: travel time to ICANN meeting in Los Angeles 12 - 15 November 2001: ICANN meeting RP points out that there is also the following meetings: NANOG: 21 - 23 October 2001 ARIN: 28 - 31 October 2001 CJW notes that these would be 4 meetings back to back and that she would not be able to attend them all (but she will have to attend NANOG in any case) HPH mentions that another possibility would be to organise a physical AC meeting in conjunction with the ICANN meeting instead. He also would only be able to attend either the LACNIC or the ICANN meeting, but not both. WW believes that it is more important to have a physical AC meeting than to attend all RIR and ICANN meetings worldwide. He does not believe it is necessary to attend each ICANN meeting with a large number of RIR and AC members. Others agree. 10. AC nominations MK: RIPE region: deadline for AC nominations closed on 5 September 2001 (today) one nomination received from HPH for HPH (Not mentioned during the telephoen conference, it must be noted Mark McFadden had also nominated HPH.) elections will take place at RIPE 40 meeting in Prague on 5 Octoer 2001 RP: ARIN region: the deadline for AC nominations was extendend to 17 September 2001 APNIC region: elections took place last week in Taipei. Kenny Huang from Taiwan was elected. Even though he formally only starts his term in January 2002, it was suggested to invite him to participate as an observer earlier than that. HPH suggest to wait until APNIC has announced the results of the elections formally to the AC, before the AC takes any action. HG asks the ASO Secretariat to include the LACNIC meetings on the meeting calendar. 11. AOB RB is concerned about the number of new Support Organisation propositions, e.g ccTLD SO, non-commercial SO, commercial SO, technical SO BR clarifies that the only active proposal is the ccTLD SO. She believe the AC does not have a position on this at this moment. There is not much that could be done righ now apart from participating in the meetings to keep informed. The real issue arises if it would be decided to re-constitute the ICANN Board. At that point in time the ASO can get involved. HPH understands RBs concern. This trend could reduce the importance of the ASO and PSO. The DNSO was one 3rd of the ICANN structure. If the DNSO splits into equally important parts, the addressing community must be concerned about being marginalised. JC mentions that there are currently a number of proposals on the table how to fix the DNSO and how to re-constitute the ICANN Board. None of them have been discussed publicly yet. BR thinks it would be premature for the AC to comment and to raise the concern that the ASO may be underrepresented until it is clear that this is really the case.
