Hi,
Considering the issues raised during today´s conference call and also
as follow up of this process, I think it could be useful to schedule a
face to face meeting of the drafting team and Icann staff in Sydney.
What do others think?
Regards
Olga

A transcript of the call will be available and Glen sent Kevin's
presentation to both lists. But, as promised, here is a brief summary:

The proposed support for FY10 is:
GNSO increased from 13 to 23 (includes the NCAs)
ccNSO stays flat at 12
ASO stays flat at 6
GAC increased from 0 to 6
At Large stays flat 23 (15 ALAC, 8 RALO)
SSAC stays flat at 0
RSSAC stays flat at 0
Total per meeting from 54 to 70
Travel budget for FY10 1.72mil USD, up from 1.45mil USD in FY09

Staff is working on an Exceptions Policy for timing conflicts, want to
book their own travel, find less expensive arrangements, etc.

Staff is still looking into questions on per diems, visa expenses, class
of travel, and remote participation.

A full draft of the FY10 Travel Support Guidelines will be posted by 25
May for public comment, with a final Guidelines and Summary for Seoul by
30 June.
