Hi, We have no idea how much will be allocated or whether the support is only for complete support or are sub-dividable (travel/room/ allowance). I believe we are still under the policy regime of a fixed number of people getting full support. Hopefully we will be able to get an answer from the Staff by Thursday. a.

Do we have any idea as to how much $ will be allotted or how many persons will be funded? Or, do we just put together our wish lists and wait to see what happens?

Hi,
We have an issue that needs to be dealt with by the constituencies.
Stacy Hoffberg is asking for the names of those who will receive ICANN travel support by Friday Jan 9, with a drop dead date of Jan 16.
While this is ok for the NCAs, I understand it is a problem for the constituencies as we do not have answers from the staff to our motion of 18 Dec 08 that will allow the constituencies to make their determinations. Not only that, our motion asked for the answer by 15 Jan, and they want all the information by 16 Jan. I note that we had no warning that this would be deadline.
I also understand that the consensus seems to be that that Council have no role in determining the list of names as was done for the Cairo meeting. I, therefore, think there is little I can do other then pass this request on to the constituencies.
I am enclosing the form that needs to be filled out for all travelers. The NCAs should just fill it out and send it to Glen. As for the constituencies, I do not know what to say. Perhaps the info of all the candidates should be collected so at least you all will be ready if/ when we get responses from the staff to the motion of Dec 18.
I have put an item on the GNSO Council agenda for thrusday asking the staff for status on this issue.
