Regarding ICANN's allocation of resources in support of end-user polling by and for ALAC <https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=151847258&preview=/...> : To Heidi who advanced this request <https://community.icann.org/display/projfinadhocws/ALAC+-+FY22+Additional+Bu...> within ICANN, and to all who had a part of creating it, a heartfelt and personal thank you. I am extremely heartened by the allocation of funds for survey-based research to support and drive ALAC's ongoing work. Some of you may have seen my participation in At-Large mailing lists complaining about the lack of such resources, and now here they are. I have no idea whether my contributions played any role in development of this formal request of which I was not aware, but regardless I am sincerely appreciative of the significant effort that I know has gone into creating and advancing the request. So now is the time to deliver, now that the opportunity is at hand. I have no idea what kind of sub-group and/or what ALAC support staff will be tasked to turn this approval into a detailed plan; I am at the service of whatever mechanism will be used. I hope to be useful to this process and make a positive contribution for the first time in a long time. And, again, thank you to all involved. Evan Leibovitch, Toronto Canada @evanleibovitch / @el56
