Thanks Laura for sending this update.  I found their travel policy very interesting to read.  However, I did not see any metrics for them and would be wondering if they had any

Action on ALAC Liaison: To keep ALAC informed on the results

During ICANN 81 the TLD-OPS group will host a Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery Table Top Exercise (TTX).

ccNSO is seeking a cross section of participants from sales & marketing, legal, communications, technical, executives or general management, to ensure that the exercise is of value to all participants. Participants will collaborate with colleagues from other TLDs and with a mix of roles and responsibilities

for an educational and fun experience that they will bring back to their home organization to help build their own Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plans from.

This is all for now.
