4 - Contributions FoN Process (Verizon - AID Form and Steps Review/Discussion)

Jim Castagna presented the FoN AID Form and Steps and during this introduction and discussion, it was noted that:

1. FoN activities are not problem solving like LNPA. FoN topics and issues are focused on the future (and related recommendations) as opposed to solutions. They are more like projects than issues. 2. The AID Form can be viewed as a tracking tool but lacks a section describing the end result, e.g., INC Issue Form. It was discussed that the initial intent of the AID Form was to identify, described and propose a discussion topic (or project) for consideration by the FoN and that a tracking matrix with attachments, e.g., back- up milestones, would serve as an effective tracking mechanism. 3. It was discussed that the outcome/result would yield a report and that a specific section on the AID for was not necessary since the report analysis would close the activity/project, not the AID Form. 4. It was noted that requiring an issue (or project) champion may unintentionally exclude unpopular but potentially viable solutions that could help ensure there is a future for numbering or figure out what the future of numbering is. 5. AID forms would be reviewed on a first come first serve basis but how we work on each will be determined by the group and possibly by using the tracking matrix to indicate importance. 6. The AID Form & Steps, along with the Tracking Matrix, may be supplemented by a back-up set of sheets for each topic/issue (or project) to describe the work plan, milestones and progress history for each.

During the discussion, certain process characteristics and considerations yielded the following agreements of understanding. Note that agreements on “process” are not final until they are included in process documentation and endorsed by the NANC:

1. The AID Form and Steps, along with the (TBD) Tracking Matrix will be used as tools to organize FoN projects. 2. The FoN will present this approach to the NANC for direction and advice prior to adopting these tools for permanent use. 3. An FCC/NANC request to the FoN would be the charge of the co-chairs to submit and introduce a corresponding AID submission to the FoN. 4. Only one of the AID Form submitters needs to be present when an Activity/Project is being introduced or discussed if it has yet to be accepted. 5. Subsequent discussions, once the FoN accepts the project, become the responsibility of the FoN and the original submitters do not have to be present for the project to advance. 6. AID Forms need to be submitted at least 7 calendar days prior to the next meeting in order to be added to the next meeting’s agenda. 7. All AID Form submissions will be recorded on a TBD tracking matrix, and reflect whether the activity/project has been submitted, accepted, rejected, referred, completed, etc (TBD). 8. Activities that may fall outside the scope of the FoN, require significant commitment of resources, or involve public policy issues with significant consequences, should be brought before the NANC prior to accepting the activity for analysis by the FoN.

Commons versus Property Rights (1-800 AFTA) Proposal for Study Topics (1-800 AFTA)

1. There was not enough time remaining to address the above contributions. 2. It was noted that the FoN activities over the next few meetings may focus on finalizing the AID Form and Steps, and that these and other contributions may not be addressed until afterwards. 3. It was also noted that once the AID Form and Steps are adopted, that all previous and existing proposals should follow that process, namely, that they too would need to use the AID Form to get the activity/project on the FoN’s Agenda.

5 - Action Item Review

1. All: Review contributions previously submitted for future discussion, including that of 1 800 AFTA circulated on 12/12/06. 2. Jim Castagna: Contact the NANC representative from O.U.R. (Courtney Jackson) to request a written description of the issue raised at the December NANC meeting. 3. Jim Castagna and Cathie Capita: Review past meeting notes and prepare a draft Table of Contents to be used to solicit contributions for a brief "Summary of Findings" report regarding New and Future Services. 4. Jerome Candelaria and Rebecca Beaton: Prepare an outline of regulatory issues to capture the items that have been discussed in the past by the FoN. (CONTINUED)) 5. Jim Castagna: Prepare and distribute new versions of the AID Form and Steps reflecting suggestions/comments.
