I'll preface this by stating that DNS Women is one of my clients under a different context, but I am not representing them at the moment. With that said, for those of you who were more involved with these activities: are there any objective reasons why CCWG-AP members should not participate in the grants, or is ICANN org. overreaching?

Dear Giovanni, Xavier, former members
First of all, again Happy New year, with huge success to you all.
Thank you Giovanni and Xavier for your work on delivering the Grant Program guide book! Appreciate.
I would like to raise the following question:
Why members of Auction Proceed, who that never been involved with the details of the application guide book are not able to participate?
We have worked as volunteers and our work have finished defining the model ICANN could have to manage such Grant program. We didn’t go further in defining any other requirements for the applicants. I am sure I didn’t.
The DNS Women group where I am CEO would like to participate due to the kind of activities we perform among women in several countries related to the DNS.
Auction Proceed members have dedicated their time to the Auction Proceed Working Group for years and we never have in mind this would be a reason for being excluded from this Program.
Will it be the same restriction, for instance for everyone that has been participating in the new gTLD round ?? it was not the case in 2012!
I really cannot see any conflict of interest based on the ICANN bylaws that prevent the volunteer members to participate in this new Grant pilot.
Of course, if any former member had participated on the definition of this guidebook, then there would be conflict, otherwise, I certainly do not see any conflict and would like to know the reasons this impediment was stated.
I appreciate your feedback!
Thanks again for this new program !!
