Basically, I disagree with the notion that some of
the travel funding should be allocated to constituencies and some
should be earmarked to support WG chairs. I believe the original
intent was not to progress WG efforts, but rather to make sure that all
stakeholders (constituencies) have an *equal* opportunity to
participate. (I would think that a responsible WG chair should have
been sure of his/her ability to participate *before* accepting the
position.) Therefore, I am in favor of dividing the funding more or
less equally among the consituencies and letting each decide how it can best
support representation at ICANN meetings.
