The chair suggested to reduce the WS from 4 hrs to 3
or 2.5 hrs, so members can have more time to discuss other important issues.
W.S Chen suggested each members should attend and make their own 10 min DRP
report. Peter suggested to have few longer typical presentations(more than 10
min.) and have questionnaire for members before DRP WS, so we will have better
schedule.
Chair suggested to have a survey on the tax, cost,
regulation of each candidate of APTLD incorporation. For example, like HK, NZ,
SG. YJ Park suggested to have more time for members like SG or HK to prepare
for related documents and information. Sue Leader suggested to move forward
since we have been working on this for a long time. Peter suggested to publish
the survey for reference before 15 Sep. Anyone would like to bid or host the
registration should make announcement and provide reference between 1 to 5 Oct.
The Board will vote online for the final decision on 10 Oct. 2001, so Board can
sign the legal documents in L.A. on 10 Nov. Whether members who would like to
bid for APTLD registration should elide from voting are yet to be decided.
YJ Park asked if APTLD could support to have a
non-commercial SO since the fading voices of non-commercial. Chair and vice
Chair thought this is a different issue which should not discuss here.
