Draft FY2008/2009 Budget and Operating Plan draft posted for public comment
by Nick Ashton-Hart May 19, 2008

May 19, 2008

http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-17may08.htm ICANN Posts Draft FY09 Operating Plan and Budget 17 May 2008 Each year, from July through December, ICANN's planning cycle calls for creation of the Strategic Plan. At the end of December 2007, the ICANN Board approved ICANN's Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan is the three-year overview document that describes the strategic priorities for ICANN. See: http://www.icann.org/strategic-plan/. Each year, from January through June, there is a follow-on planning effort to create the Operating Plan and Budget for a single year. This document outlines the work map and financial requirements for the next fiscal year, consistent with implementing the Strategic Plan Objectives. The planning work for fiscal year 2009 began with a consultation in Delhi. The community and ICANN's Board reviewed an initial budget framework presented at New Delhi in February 2008. This approach provided the community the earliest opportunity yet to provide input on a draft budget. Staff held consultations regarding the budget and plan, received posted comments, and worked with the ICANN Board Finance Committee to develop the draft FY09 Operating Plan and Budget. Substantial work has taken place to incorporate feedback from the community, Board, and staff since the initial framework was first presented in February 2008, but the overall scope and themes remain consistent. In this fiscal year, highlights of planned ICANN results and activities include: Complete, and then launch the new generic TLD (gTLD) program. Based on progress with the IDN "fast track" process, introduce country code IDNs (ccIDN) at the top level. As part of establishing a documented security agenda, deliver on DNSSEC readiness, ICANN-internal security improvements, and training on disaster planning and mitigation for interested country code operators Working with RIRs and the NRO, continue to highlight issues related to IPv4 depletion and IPv6 adoption Grow and enhance contractual compliance capability on behalf of registrant protection Invest in IANA services and staffing to improve service availability, automation, response time, and disaster recovery. Strengthen the multi-stakeholder model by implementing GNSO improvements, expanding stakeholder travel support and expanding translation programs. In summary, the draft budget proposes revenues of about $60.7MM and total expenses (including depreciation, allowances and contingency) of $58.5MM with a contribution to reserve of about $2.2MM. Compared to what was presented in New Delhi, this actually represents a reduction in operating expenses from $54.1MM to $51.8MM. As compared to FY08, the total expense budget, including contingency, is projected to increase from $42.6MM to $58.5MM (37% increase). Operating expenses (excluding contingency, depreciation, and bad debt) are projected to increase from $38.9MM to $51.8MM (33% increase). This draft Operating Plan and Budget calls for substantial expense growth for ICANN, as a result of an ambitious work program for FY09, as dictated by the Strategic Plan. The goal of this draft FY09 Operating Plan and Budget document is to enable informed, active community and Board feedback regarding proposed objectives and plans. And, when the draft plan is finalized and approved, establish the resources and objectives that will deliver on the right initiatives for the ICANN community during FY09. This draft FY09 Operating Plan and Budget is being posted for community review with the support of the Board Finance Committee (BFC). The plan is available at: http://www.icann.org/financials/proposed-opplan-budget-fy08-09-17may07.pdf [PDF, 356K] This draft plan is one more step in the planning cycle, to allow for additional review and feedback. A public comment forum is available at: op-budget-fy2009(a)icann.org Additionally, consultations will be held with ICANN constituencies to get direct feedback, and the final plan discussed at ICANN's Paris meeting, for adoption by ICANN's Board in June. -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart Director for At-Large Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) Main Tel: +33 (450) 40 46 88 USA DD: +1 (310) 301-8637 Fax: +41 (22) 594-85-44 Mobile: +41 (79) 595 54-68 email: nick.ashton-hart(a)icann.org Win IM: ashtonhart(a)hotmail.com / AIM/iSight: nashtonhart(a)mac.com / Skype: nashtonhart Online Bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashtonhart

Re: [APAC-Discuss] Important: Resigning from ALAC Position at ICANN
by Nick Ashton-Hart April 28, 2008

April 28, 2008

Dear Veronica: On behalf of the staff may I say that we are sorry to see you leave though we can understand that volunteer activities must take a back seat to your other obligations. It has been a pleasure to work with you, and we hope you will remain connected to the community going forward. We wish you the very best! On 28/04/2008 11:55, "Veronica Cretu" <VeronicaC(a)diplomacy.edu> wrote: Dear colleagues! Warm greetings from Moldova! Hope my message finds you well! I am currently involved as an international expert in a big project for the Ministry of Education of Liberia and will have to spend more than three weeks there starting from May 15. The NGO I run here in Moldova is also involved in many national projects which require very much of my direct involvement: monitoring and evaluation. In this context, it is quite a challenge to find additional time for ALAC activities when I am full-time involved in so many activities. That is why, it is my duty to inform you all that due to the many projects I am currently in charge of, I have to unfortunately resign from my ALAC position. It has not been an easy decision to make at all! I just can not stay in ALAC any longer just for the sake of being on ALAC/AtLarge - I prefer to be effective and to produce impact. And this is smth for which I simply don't have time now! I must say that ALAC has been a great experience for me and I am truly thankful to everyone on ALAC who have been day by day, side by side during this last year. I have learned a lot from this professional, hard-working, committed and culturally diverse community. * I want to thank my European colleagues: Annette and Wolfgang Kleinwächter in the first place, for their confidence in me and for believing that I can bring something new to ALAC, even if I am from Eastern Europe:)! * I am very thankful to Cheryl and Izumi for their openness and for their professional support on the initiatives I launched on ALAC. * I am happy for having worked with my European colleagues: Sebastian and Wolf and all my respect for all EURALO board members for the patience, passion and possible solutions they have been trying to identify in order to make EURALO start working on policy related issues in the region; * My thanks go also for my North American colleagues: Alan, Robert and Beau - for their professional work and support whenever needed; * Jose Ovidio, Carlos, Hawa - my admiration for the effort and time you invest in ALAC - I know it has not been easy for you given the language barriers that you have been facing so far; * Mohamed, Fatimata, Vanda and Thu Hue - many thanks for your energy, time and devotion and for your friendly support on the ideas I was promoting on ALAC/Atlarge. * Many thanks to current ALAC liaisons: Hong, Jacqueline and Wendy; * And of course, my many thanks to Nick - I know it is not an easy task to handle the communication and collaboration with such a big and diverse community. Thank you for your support throughout this year. I know ICANN staff will do much more in order to support ALAC/AtLarge become a viable and strong community now with more staff members in place. I am glad I managed to bring to ALAC/AtLarge some ideas and practices that go back to my professional background. Because I strongly believe that "A policy is a deliberate plan of action to guide decisions and achieve rational outcome(s)." back in Puerto Rico (my first ICANN meeting) I came to the conclusion that ALAC /At Large needs to have a set of mechanisms via which these policies are identified, promoted and evaluated. These are the few things that I have managed to do in the period of June 2007 - present: - I initiated the "OneDay" Workshop for ALAC/AtLarge. - I have designed the agenda and conducted together with Cheryl and Izumi two "OneDay" workshops before ICANN meetings in Los-Angeles and New Delhi. - I have compiled OneDay Evaluation Reports, based on the feedback from ALAC/AtLarge members who have participated in these meetings; - Back in New Delhi, I made a statement on behalf of ALAC on Organizational Development; - I elaborated the ALAC Organizational Development document that focuses on several components of the ALAC's developments; - I proposed a document on "What is an ALAC/AtLarge" Working Group - and the document was used for planning activities per certain working groups during the OneDay workshop in New Delhi ; - I have recently transferred some of the good practices that came as a result of this Organizational Development processes on ALAC into the GNSO Improvements Report. - Along with all the above, I organized a three days training program on Internet Governance and Community Development in Moldova ( www.cmb.md/igf <http://www.cmb.md/igf><http://www.cmb.md/igf> ), during which we had a special session on ALAC/AtLarge @ ICANN. Training participants were 16 young leaders representing civil society, business sector, international community and the Government. - I have had several discussions with APTI members from Romania , as they were our project partners in the above Program, and as a result we have recently received their application in order to become an accredited ALS structure @ICANN from our part of the world. All the reports and documents I produced have been available since produced at https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi?organisational_development . To conclude, I want to encourage you to contact me/stay in touch in case you are interested in working on projects/initiatives dealing with ICT for Development, Access to Knowledge, Internet Governance, Community Development, IDNs, Education, Virtual Embassies, Climate Change, etc. both regionally and/or internationally!

GNSO Improvements - ALAC and Joint Statements - comments requested
by At-Large Staff April 24, 2008

April 24, 2008

Dear All: As you may recall, an Ad-Hoc Working Group on GNSO Improvements, with representatives of each RALO, has been working on a response to the public consultation on the Board Governance Committee¹s proposals for improvements to the GNSO. As a part of that work, the working group was also engaged in negotiations with various communities within the GNSO Community, including the Commercial and Business Users, Intellectual Property, Internet Service and Connectino Providers, and Non-Commercial Users Constituencies. The Joint Statement that resulted from those discussions was posted to the public comment forum today, and is accessible at: http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-improvements-report-2008/msg00012.html. The Working Group also produced a draft statement for transmission to the Board of Directors by the ALAC in its role as an Advisory Committee. That document was subject to a community comment period, and the working group incorporated those comments received however, the working group took the decision that it would be better to wait to finalise the text until after the Joint Statement was finished, so that the At-Large community could take one final look at the two statements, make any comments, and if necessary those comments could then be dealt with in the ALAC¹s individual statement. The ALAC also discussed the progress on this issue at its meeting earlier this month. The Staff have been asked to post a version of the ALAC statement, as well as the Joint Statement, so that comments can be taken. It is envisaged that we will be able to take comments for a few days as the statement can be transmitted to the board following the end of the public comment period on the GNSO Improvements draft, which finishes on the 24th of April. You may access both the draft ALAC Statement, and the Joint Statement, from this URL. Please do use the comment button to provide any comments you care to make. https://st.icann.org/alac-docs/index.cgi?al_alac_gnim_wg_01_01_alac_statemen t_on_gnso_improvements -- Regards, Nick Ashton-Hart, Matthias Langenegger, Frederic Teboul ICANN At-Large Staff email: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org
