I have been waiting to see if the main schedule will be posted soon.  Do you know when that is going to happen?

Subject: Announcement of Singapore Budget working group: call for participants
Importance: High

The below working group definition has resulted from input received during 2 calls held between staff and participating community members early end of November:

OBJECTIVE:

Early community input on the FY16 Operating plan and Budget process.

HOW:

Small working group (up to 15 participants in total, including about 3-4 staff) to review and define budget assumptions relative to Revenue, priorities, initiatives, expenses envelopes.

WHEN:

During Singapore meeting, in an approximately 4-hour working session, from 18:30 to 22:30 (including a dinner break). The chosen day will be determined through doodle poll.

WHO:

• Any Community member: staff, board (BFC members most likely), stakeholders.
• Members must have the experience of either the ICANN’s budget process, OR another organization’s budget process
• Representation:
  • Ideally, participants come from a large number of different organizations, so that the group benefits from diverse views/backgrounds,
  • However, participants represent only themselves, and not the organization(s) that they may be members of (working group members do not bind their organization of origin with their views).
  • The group does not have to represent all stakeholders, it simply needs to have interested and competent members.

WHAT IT IS NOT:

• A budget steering committee
• An opportunity to ask or direct funding
• A required step in the process to provide input. Separate input can be provided independently during the public comment process.

ACTION:

If you have participated to ICANN’s or another organization’s budget process, and are interested to participate to this working meeting, look for the upcoming doodle poll to choose which day(s) of the Singapore meeting week you can participate. See attached a reminder of the budget calendar for FY16.

Thanks,

Xavier
