Data Processing Acknowledgement : Wednesday, July 4, 2018 - 03:38 EST Submitted values are: First Name + Last Name: Stephen Deerhake Affiliation: ccNSO; .as (America Samoa) ccTLD Email: sdeerhake@nic.as Please specify how you intend to contribute to the work of the ccNSO at the next ICANN meeting: I intend to participate in the face to face meetings of the following ccNSO related working groups and standing committees: Guidelines Review Working Group (member of), SOPC (member of), TechDay Working Group (member of) PDP Working Group for the Retirement of ccTLDs (chair of) Additionally, as the ccNSO's representative to the Empowered Community, I would be available to organize and participate in any Empowered Community Public forum which may be held as part of either an Approval or Rejection Action (initiated by the Board or the Empowered Community respectively), should the need for such a forum become necessary between now and ICANN63 in Barcelona (based on Board actions which might be taken between now and ICANN63). I would also make myself available for any ECA related ccNSO Members' Meeting sessions, as well as make myself available to provide the ccNSO Members' Meeting an update on the activities of the PDP ccTLD Retirement WG. Lastly, I would participate in the various joint ccNSO/other SO/AC face to face meetings that will take place (e.g., ccNSO/GNSO joint meeting), and would of course participate in the face to face meeting of the ccNSO Council as one of the three representatives from the North America region. Additional relevant information: In answer to the question below regarding the possibility of attending ICANN63 if only partial funding is made available, the short answer is "yes". In that regards, my first preference would be complete funding, my second preference would be funding for lodging only, and my third preference would be funding for airfare only. In lieu of funding for lodging, I would have to make a decision regarding attending the meeting closer to the meeting date when there will be greater clarity regarding Registry finances. (Also I believe there is an issue with this form, as the drop-down box for the question "Number of times ccNSO funding received the last 3 public ICANN meetings" below provides for an answer in the range "0-2", when the range should be "0-3" (unless I mis-understood the question). In my case the answer is "3", as Byron has always declined it, and Pablo has been serving on the NomCom Selection Committee and thus has been funded by that group for the past several meetings (but not for ICANN63 apparently)). I have read the ccNSO Travel Funding Guidelines [1] and understand the process and conditions: Yes Number of times ccNSO funding received the last 3 public ICANN meetings: 2 Do you have your employer's approval to receive ccNSO Travel Funding? Yes, I have my employer's approval to receive ccNSO Travel Funding (OR, I am not employed) Employment status: Yes, I am employed ==Please, provide your employer's contact information== Employer's Name: GDNS, LLC, d/b/a as AS Domain Registry (I am the President and CEO) Employer's Email: sdeerhake@nic.as Would you have the possibility to attend the meeting, if you would only receive one part of the funding (either plane ticket or hotel only)? Yes, I can accept to be funded only partly [1] https://ccnso.icann.org/about/travel-funding-07apr16-en.pdf
