I've found the answer to my question regarding the Board resolution:

http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-25sep10-en.htm#2.2
"2.2 New gTLD Applicant Support

Support to applicants will generally include outreach and education to  
encourage participation across all regions, but any direct financial  
support for applicant fees must come from sources outside of ICANN.
Staff will publish a list of organizations that request assistance and  
organizations that state an interest in assisting with additional   
program development, for example pro-bono consulting advice, pro-bono  
in-kind support, or financial assistance so that those needing  
assistance and those willing to provide assistance can identify each  
other and work together.
Owing to the level of uncertainty associated with the launch of new  
gTLDs, the fee levels currently in the Applicant Guidebook will be  
maintained for all applicants."
