Nothing has been arranged yet, and we will discuss at EC how we will go forward with organizing the event. The budget for this event is 7500 USD. Please note that we cannot fund any other event with this budget. We can only spend it to organize a successful event in Johannesburg before ICANN meeting. If you would like to help to organize this event in Johannesburg, please let me know.</span></font></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br></span></font></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br></span></font></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.8px">As to the two travel support, the former EC allocated one travel slot to Aarti for APRIGF. One travel slot is left. We discussed during EC meeting that RightsCon might be appropriate. We still don't know if NCUC proposal is accepted, but RightsCon is an option. You can suggest other events as alternative, and if we receive suggestions that we believe are more beneficial for outreach than RightsCon, we will get back to you. You can also use the outreach form for providing suggestions. </span></font><a href="http://bit.ly/ncucout" style="font-size:12.8px" target="_blank">Http://bit.ly/<wbr>ncucout</a></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.8px"><br></span></font></div><div class="gmail_default"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12.8px">The timeline for submitting requests is critical.
