by Dev Anand Teelucksingh April 28, 2014

April 28, 2014

Dear All, With the presentation of the At-Large Social Media Strategy on the At-Large Technology Taskforce call on Monday April 21 2014, the slides (updated to incorporate feedback on the April 21 2014) has been uploaded to the wiki at https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Social+Media+Strategy+… https://community.icann.org/x/lBcQAg) Also, a 2nd document with the slides with additional explanatory notes has been prepared and also uploaded to https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/At-Large+Social+Media+Strategy+… For your convenience, they have also been attached to this email :-) Please review and comment if you approve or have questions, suggestions and/or concerns . As this proposal recommendation calls for a curation WG compromised of members from this and other At-Large WGs and an intent to have such a group approved by the ALAC before the 50th ICANN meeting, we'll need to circulate this document approved by you with those groups to get their feedback as soon as possible. Kind Regards, Dev Anand Teelucksingh

Summary of At-Large Technology Taskforce AC Plugin testing call - Monday 14 April 2014 at 1400 UTC
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh April 14, 2014

April 14, 2014

Dear All, Quick followup on the call: Attended : Dev T, Olivier Crépin-Leblond, Beran Gillen Apologies, Gordon Chillcott, Glenn Mcknight Staff : Nathalie, Heidi What we've discovered in testing Adobe Connect plugins are that they will only work on desktops running Adobe Flash and not on mobile/tablet platforms on iOS and Android. Given that attendees would be using such mobile devices to connect, any plugin targeting participants would not work. So its makes more sense to look at plugins that are targeted to hosts/presenters (that would typically still be using desktops running Flash) rather than those targeted for use by participants. A complex workaround would be to share the screen of a desktop host/presenter for mobile devices but this is inelegant. StageTimer ( http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/stage-lights.html) looks promising, although there seems to be a bug in that participants can manipulate the timer, which would make it less useful. Digital Timer ( http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/digitaltimer.html) looks more promising with the feature of being customised only by hosts or presenters being explicitly stated. SurveyMaker ( http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/surveymaker.html) - the setup required several steps with the final validation email not being delivered in time. Hence this wasn't tested. However, Adobe Connect does have a builtin poll pod that will work on desktop and mobile and perhaps notes about this pod could be shared with At-Large WGs chairs looking to incorporate participants feedback during their WG calls. It was noted that the poll pod is being used on GNSO and some cross-community WGs. Think I've gotten the key points from the call and many thanks to those that attended.

Proposed Agenda for Capacity Building Session on Communications on April 17 2014
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh April 14, 2014

April 14, 2014

(Cross-Posted to the Capacity Building WG and the Technology Taskforce WG) Dear All, As part of the preparations for the At-Large Summit II, several capacity building sessions are being organised for the At-Large Summit II Attendees based on the ALSes feedback. One of the topics was communications which will be presented by me, as chair of the Technology Taskforce (TTF), along with Nathalie Peregrine from At-Large Staff on April 17 2014 at 1300-1430 UTC. Attached is v1 of our draft presentation notes. The intent is to minimise any live demos and use screenshots throughout. This will mean a lot of slides to prepare beforehand, but would be easier to present. Comments, suggestions welcomed Kind Regards, Dev Anand Teelucksingh Chair, TTF

Queries/Inputs from the At-Large Technology Taskforce (TTF) to ICANN IT staff
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh April 4, 2014

April 4, 2014

Dear David, Josh, Reed Seems we are about to start another ICANN meeting in Singapore just when Buenos Aires was just ending! ;-) As TTF chair, I hope to have a chance to talk with you in person about the following 5 items if any of you will be in Singapore, but of course you can reply to this email. I've cced the public TTF list at ttf(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org to keep the rest of the TTF in the loop 1) status of translation of LACRALO email lists Any progress since our discussions in early January 2014? It would be desirable to see some progress on this before the ICANN 50th meeting. 2) looking at suitable Adobe Connect plugins The TTF tested the direct dialout plugin installed in the TTF AC room and whilst persons from North America and Europe (specifically Canada, France) were able to use the plugin to have the AC room dial them, I (living in Trinidad and Tobago with a +1-868-6XX-XXXX number) was unable to have the AC room dial to me, giving me an error has occurred. No amount of permutations of the phone number (using "+1-868-6.." , "18686...") seemed to work. However, in thinking about this feature, there are some disadvantages - this wouldn't work for persons requesting dialouts to a hotel or office with a PBX where a receptionist operator answers. - this plugin uses a different bridge from Adigo, how would recording (incorporating audio from the AC room, Adigo and this phone bridge) be done? - this wouldn't be helpful for At-Large calls with interpretation since the person being dialled can't join a Adigo channel However the TTF on its calls have identified two plugins for Adobe Connect that could be of use for At-Large and we would like for these plugins to be installed for our testing after the Singapore meeting * Stage Lights - Stage Lights is a timer that helps keep presenters on time. http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/stage-lights.html * SurveyMaker for Adobe Connect - Surveys and polls with eleven question types, built-in reporting, CSV downloads and much more. A demo is available http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/surveymaker.html Whilst we won't be able to test this, this plugin might be useful for ICANN F2F meetings that use Real Time Scribing: http://www.adobe.com/products/adobeconnect/feature-details/closed-captionin… 3) Troubleshooting connecting to Adobe Connect rooms using Linux, Whilst I've started contacting persons who reported issues in using Linux to connect to Adobe Connect, I've haven't been keeping up with collating the required information, Gordon Chillcott and Bill Thanis from the TTF (cced in this email for reference) are regular Linux users and would be better able to talk the talk re: desktop Linux in getting the necessary information for you and to document the problems and colloborate with you on solutions/workarounds. 4) wiki translate plugins, I've pointed out that the Bing translate plugin works slightly better on iOS whereas the Google Translate plugin failed to work at all. Feedback on how the wiki translate plugins will work on Android OS will be done soon. Also, feedback on the quality of the machine translation will be sought from At-Large and to be done after the Singapore meeting. 5) separate Confluence wiki installation Although some proposed layouts for How At-Large Content can be organised, ultimately a separate Confluence wiki install needs to be arranged to test more detailed organisational ideas and possibly other themes and wiki plugins so as to not disrupt the existing At-Large wiki. A test wiki installation that's invisible to search engines with accounts for 5 users which should be more than sufficient to allow testing by the TTF. Kind Regards, Dev Anand Teelucksingh TTF chair
