The At-Large
Community in the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(ICANN) has launched a new interactive website, ITRealms reports.
Director, ICANN Policy team in support of the At-Large
Community, Heidi Ullrich, confirmed this, saying they were very pleased to
announce the launch of the brand new website of the ICANN At-Large Community.
She also said that over the past year, the At-Large
Community and ICANN Staff have provided dedicated efforts to create a more
engaging website, with the goal to make the site an effective engagement tool and
a one-stop shop for finding At-Large related issues.
These, she said, include ALAC policy advice, news, meetings
and events, activities of the ALAC, Regional At-Large Organisations (RALOs) and
At-Large Structures (ALSes), and ways to get involved in the At-Large community.
Further, she said, that this community-driven effort has
resulted in a big step forward for At-Large with this official release of the
new website.
On the post launch, Ullrich noted they expect the website to
continue to evolve with new content that could be easily created and updated. Stressing
other features that are anticipated to evolve include ALS Applications – New
submission process for organizations that apply to become ALSes; Translations –
Translations for additional static labels and content, public comment
information from icann.org, and curated content submitted by the At-Large
Community.
In addition, she said that accessibility for her team means
continued progress towards Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Level AA
certification, relabeling of images with alternative text, and KIFs , as well
as content templates to see to additional
formats for content authoring via the generic content template.
