Hi Chris,
 
Two comments:
1)     Now that we know that strategy is but a “wish list”...what strategic priorities are expected to be funded, versus which are likely not going to be funded.

2)     Can ICANN differentiate between structural vs discretionary costs (fixed vs variable).  In other words, can they tell us what must be funded versus what is optional and hence the prioritization of what can be cut /modified with the least impact.

Thanks
Byron

Hi Chris,

With apologies for my delay in commenting....
 
Thanks for this draft, which looks good to me.

A couple of things I would suggest adding:

• an observation that the cost cutting measures appear to be very short-term. In addition, they may in themselves be counter-productive.
• a comment that there remains the need to better prioritise the strategic initiatives to ensure that they fit with resources – in terms of financial resources, staff capacity and community capacity.
  

Regards,

Lesley

All,
 
I have had no response on this. I realise everyone is busy but we have to get our comments in by 25 June.
 
Can I take it that no response means everyone is happy for it to go out?
 
Cheers,

All,
 
Attached is a draft for discussion. It has been put together from the questions that I raised on one of the ICANN teleconferences discussing this subject.
 
Others on the council may have their own separate questions or topics upon which they would like more information.
 
I look forward to your input as soon as possible.
 
Cheers,
