Hi Byron,
No, this is not linked to any
future funding.

No objection.
One question. Any risk of losing ICAAN's funding in the future if we turn it
back now?

Subject: [ccnso-council] travel funding request
All,
As
you know we have submitted to ICANN 13 people who will be funded to travel to
Sydney. We had an allocation of 18 to be used by the end of June 2009 and
therefore have not taken up 5.
I
have been approached by the GAC Chair, Janis Karklins, who says:
“As you may be aware, the GAC is
currently working through mechanisms to ensure least and less developed country
participation and securing financial support for their participation through
the ICANN operational and budget planning process. As this processes and a
proposed approach is for the next fiscal year, we are faced with some attendees
needing support for the ICANN Sydney meeting. Would the ccNSO have space
through its travel support from ICANN and if so, would it be willing to share
its unused travel support for 3 to 4 government representatives from developing
or least developed countries?
The GAC stands ready to discuss with ccNSO or ICANN staff the administrative
details in case of your favorable response.”
I
have checked with Doug Brent and Theresa Swinehart who say that we would not
‘share’ any unused support but rather we would simply confirm to ICANN that we
have no objection to them reallocating our unused support to some nominees put
forward by the GAC.
I
think we should do this in the spirit of cooperation. Does anyone object?
Cheers,
Chris
