Sally and I did discuss the budget/cost cutting issues, but mostly<br>
in the context of understanding the drivers (falling revenues) and<br>
the way ICANN Outreach might have presented a somewhat too rosy/<br>
optimistic picture of the domain business. We never really got to<br>
the practical implications to travel and policy work, but it was<br>
pointed out that ALAC and NCSG/NCUC/NPOC are the largest slices in<br>
the sponsored travel budget.<br>
<br>
Thus feel free to dive deeper into what the practical implications<br>
are, but it helps (for everybody) to be familiar with the budget<br>
and strategic plans that have been published recently.<br>
