<div class="">Let’s also remember that dealing with ICANN travel slots and NCUC travel support should occupy a rather small part of the EC’s bandwidth. There is much more we could and should be doing as a group that is not being done.  Some help with e.g. organizing
 an outreach event in BA, the Membership Affairs Team, the website, and many other items would be really very welcome.</div>
