Dear all: Apologies for the multiple e-mails. I neglected to include RySG, RrSG, and PIR in the list of SO/AC groups for which we are scheduling calls. Regards, Taryn _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dear Finance Community members, As you know, the public comment period on the Draft FY17 Operating Plan and Budget<https://wecann.icann.org/external-link.jspa?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.icann.org…> and Draft 5-Year Operating Plan Update<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/proposed-opplan-budget-2016-202…> closes on 30 April 2016. After all comments have been received and reviewed by staff, ICANN will hold community calls 9-13 May 2016 during which the comments submitted will be presented by the submitters to ICANN staff. This is intended to enhance the understanding of the comments and so improve the quality of the response. All calls will be public, focused on the organization that submitted comments, and attended by staff subject matter experts and at least one Board Finance Committee<https://wecann.icann.org/external-link.jspa?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.icann.org…> member. Additional board members may attend based on availability. The staff and Board members attending will primarily listen and ask clarifying questions. Responses to public comments will not be provided during these calls, unless the comments are factual with a very specific and simple answer. ICANN staff has communicated this opportunity to the chairs and co-chairs of the SO/AC groups that have regularly submitted comments in the past and we are in the process of scheduling calls for them. The purpose of this e-mail is to extend the same opportunity to the broader ICANN community. If you plan on submitting comments separately from the SO/AC groups listed below, please let us know if you would like ICANN to schedule a call to review your comments with Board and staff by replying to this e-mail. SO/AC calls -ALAC -BC, IPCP and ISPCP -ccNSO -GNSO Council, NCUC and NPOC The schedule for all calls will be published on the Community Wiki Finance Workspace as dates and times are agreed with each constituency group / commenter. Separately, we have received input from the community that more detailed information on the published documents may be required before formal comments can be submitted. If you have clarifying questions (i.e. help the reader understand what has been published) regarding the structure and / or content of the published documents please submit them to controller(a)icann.org<mailto:controller@icann.org>. ICANN staff will review all questions and provide a written response within five business days. Please note, ICANN staff will assess if the questions can be addressed immediately or should be submitted as a public comment.
