From what I understood from our meeting, there is no longer any CROP.
Each RALO will have $4000 each to use for train or bus travel or whatever else the RALO wants to use these funds for... but airfares, accommodation and per diems no longer fit, except in special circumstances. Of course APRALO had been planning to use our CROP allocation to attend the regional Asia Pacific IGF in Vanuatu, the first one to be held in the Pacific that we have been planning for two years. And train or bus travel is going to be REALLY helpful (NOT!) Getting even *one *person from anywhere in our region to attend this event under CROP would have easily used up that whole allocation (for airfares, accommodation, perdiems - the usual) Even I live at the opposite end of the Pacific from Vanuatu and have to travel through two countries to get there (Cook Islands, NZ, Australia, then Vanuatu). Satish and I have organised workshops. And we only have two months to try to fundraise. What to do - pay for it ourselves?

Hi Mary and Benedetta
As per the call yesterday. Myself and Judith asked direct questions on the number of CROP trips will be permitted per RALO, types of trips permitted and the guidelines of what is a ICANN sponsored event as it pertains to CROP approved trips.
I am working on the NARALO Outreach strategy and I need clarification to complete the cornerstone of our efforts as to CROP
A few things we brought up on the call includes the importance of the ARIN RIR relationship and their two meetings a year as important CROP trips.
Thanks
