See below. As I mentioned on the NARALO call on Monday. If we *do* want to make a request, it needs to be done now. Thanks, D Darlene A.

When completing your templates, please remember to include deliverables and the rationale why ICANN should fund the activity. (and please make sure you show how the proposal ties up with the ICANN strategy) General Assemblies (GAs) As you know, the ALAC is going to submit a proposal for a second At-Large Summit (ATLAS2) to take place in FY14. The At-Large Summit would include a General Assembly for each of the RALOs. At this point in time, it is therefore redundant for RALOs to ask for a General Assembly this Financial Year. Internet Governance Forum (IGF) workshops Requests for workshops at the IGF will be dependent on the workshops being accepted by the MAG/IGF so make sure that you submit the requests for workshops in time for the IGF schedule, which shows a deadline for the preliminary call for workshop proposals on 22 March 2013. ExCom meeting Due to the shortening of the ICANN meeting week with the Board meeting now on Thursday, the ALAC will be submitting a request to support the ExCom and Liaisons for an extra night at the end of the ICANN Meetings in FY14 (Friday night) so that they may discuss follow-up items and plan strategy for the time between meetings, as it has customarily done on Friday afternoons when the Board meeting was on Friday morning. Finally, the At-Large Finance & Budget Sub-Committee will be holding a call to review *all* requests (and not only the Fast Track ones) on 20 March 2013. Kind regards, Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond Chair of the FBSC On 07/03/2013 16:53, ICANN At-Large Staff wrote:
