*Hi Joan - *

*this particular small sub-group is only making recommendations to the bigger Cross Community Working Group 'Auction Proceeds' in identifying questions and experts we should talk to. Since you participate as an observer in the work of the CCWG AP work, you will not be able to join the work in this particular small sub-group of volunteers. *

*We're extremely grateful for your support of the CCWG AP work as an observer and we're hoping that you can join the CCWG AP call that will discuss these particular recommendations. *

*Kind regards, * *Erika *

*Dear All - *

*we do still need few volunteers with experience in funding environments (foundations, universities, funds etc). *

*We will keep the workload to a minimum. I'm aware that December is not a good month to start something like this but we need to make progress in this area. *

*Please be so kind to consider to join this small group! *

*Thank you, * *Erika *

Dear All,

Per the new gTLD Auction Proceeds CCWG meeting earlier today, please share with the list if you are interested to volunteer for the small group to make recommendations on how to cluster the list of external experts identified to date, develop a proposal for a schedule of meetings with external experts as well as review and refine the questions for external experts as well as developing the outreach communication for external experts. As indicated on the call, preference will be given to those with experience in the funding environment. This work is expected to take place in the next two weeks, so please factor that in as you think about volunteering. As also highlighted during the previous meeting, further consideration will need to be given to the form/nature of a declaration of interest for these external experts.

As a reminder, these were the two action items coming out of the meeting in relation to this topic:

*Action item* *#4*: Form a small group consisting of leadership team and small number of CCWG members/participants that have experience in funding environment to make recommendation to how to cluster experts identified, proposal for calls, and review questions identified. Recommendation to be made in time for next CCWG meeting.

*Action item* *#5*: CCWG members / participants interested in joining this small group to inform the leadership team of their interest. Note that objective is to deliver proposal to the CCWG in time for next CCWG meeting so it requires availability in the next two weeks to work on this. (Staff to circulate separate call for volunteers to the mailing list).

Best regards,

Marika
