APTLD Member Meeting Draft Minutes
Date: 14:10-18:15, November 5, 1999
Venue: Sheraton Gateway Hotel, Los Angeles
Chair: Kilnam Chon
 
Report & Discussion:
1. ICANN (Election) Report/Discussion             14:10-14:50
   - [Sue] PSO is going through re-election process
       Geographic diversity not achieved
       Details: minutes of ICANN Special Meeting in September
 
   - More representation from AP needed
 
   - ICANN election and APTLD
       APTLD may prepare position statement to indicate support
          if we reach to the consensus.
       Targeted election: ICANN Board and
                                  NC member from the ccTLD Constituency
                                      (re-election in Feburary 2000)
 
   - pre-election of AP candidate?
        will decide after ccTLD election process is fixed
 
2. APTLD Bylaws                                     14:50-15:20
   - [Patrick] APTLD formation
       Need for stronger ccTLD organization,
       Need for improved co-ordination within AP region
 
     * Objectives
         Broad DNSO focus
         Not a ccTLD focus
         For the AP region
     * Open to wide membership
     * Membership
         Flat and simple structure
         Organizations, individuals, associates
     * Classes with specific fee and voting rights
     * Reflect broad base, a la DNSO
     * Management
         Big board, 15 or more elected by membership
         Executive Committee, 7 elected by Board
         Officers eg President, Treasure, Secretary
         Secretariat, Executive Director plus 1
     * Funding US $100 - 150,000
         US $40,000 donation from AP region for this year
         ccTLDs should pay half
         Should take in members from business and other community
     * Secretariat
         One full-time needed for meeting arrangement, documentation,
         website, mailing-list, tele-conference
 
   - by March 1 - this organization should be up and running
         APTLD - will get dissolved or become a subset of this new
         organization
   - APTLD/new org should be cost-efficient, light and flexible
 
3. Finance                                                     15:20-17:00
   - from next year each country/entity has to pay
         >ICANN, DNSO, Constituency and APTLD
 
   - APTLD Finance Committee Report (Tashiro)
      Committee Chair did not receive finance information because of
       technical error
      But related information(handout) was distributed at this meeting
       as in the past(June, August)
 
   - ICANN Task Force on Funding(Maruyama)
 
   - ICANN budget (approx. $ 4.5M)
      Willie Black's proposal on the ccTLD payment breakdown;
     $ 1,5M - ccTLD constituency
       $ 50,000/major ccTLD(10)
       $ 20,000/ medium ccTLD (30)
       $ 10,000/small ccTLD (40)
       $ 1,000/startup (100)
 
      There was disagreement among APTLD as well as CENTR on the amount
      (1.5M) as well as distribution.   It is more likely ccTLD would
      agree with $0.5M. 
 
   - DNSO budget (approx. $ 250K)
       $ 40K/constituency
 
   - ccTLD Costituency budget ($ 100K -250K)
 
   - APTLD budget ($ 100K - $ 150K)
 
   - Issues:
      (1) Criteria of "class"
            large, medium, small
      (2) Funding vs service charge
      (3) Rich vs poor
 
   - Action Items
      (1) (ICANN) Funding Committee
          To be in charge of this matter
          The following persons are recommended for the committee;
          Members: S. Leader(NZ) Chair

                   E. Roberts(AU)
                   BK Khoo(SG)

     (2) Any position (paper)
          we need to look into position paper on icann funding, in
          particular on consideration of living standard and
          affordability of registries/registrars.
 
     (3) Funding vs Finance
          Funding Committee handles ICANN funding, and Finance
          Committee handles APTLD funding.
