[NCUC Finance] Fwd: ICANN FY14 Budget Process: Presentation Materials from Call #2

Mon Jan 21 16:42:55 CET 2013

Thanks, Bill.

1    Endorsing what Bill has said; there's no reason to be backwards about
asking for $$ for specific things such as e-platforms, and I'll share that
message and the timings with the relevant list. They need to narrow down
what it is they want to build, platform-wise, and then we can work with
them to put the application together.

2    Brendan, on the call I think the message re. the deadline was that
they'll do rolling considerations of applications received and prefer to
get them sooner rather than later. I suspect there may be a somewhat higher
chance of success for getting it in sooner, i.e. in advance of March 22
deadline, but that's just my hunch.

3   Bill, re. the IGF Azerbajan event, yes yes yes. In fact I have some
ideas about that, content-wise that I'll share with you.

Overall, from my days on staff, I think we'll do well out of this if we put
in a good number of finite/discrete requests with decent rationales to
them. They'll feel they have to give us something.

All the best, m

>> To keep everyone up to speed, following the Prague Finance Community
>> Working Session in June 2012, several Community Ad Hoc Groups were formed.
>> The main goal was to improve the Budget Process, Timeline, Structure and
>> Content by utilizing the existing expertise within the Community. With 2
>> Webinar/Conference Calls and 1 Face to Face in Toronto, this group gained a
>> lot of ground on what works, what doesn’t, what can be changed in one
>> fiscal year, and how to continue working together in the next budget
>> cycle.  Not all perfect, but absolutely big strides in the right direction
>> to a better working relationship.****
>> ** **
>> Now two FY14 processes are upon all of us:****
>> 1.      Building the FY14 Budget with Community Input from now through
>> the end of April (Budget reviews and posting to be completed by 13 May)**
>> **
>> 2.      Completing the SO AC SG Additional Budget Requests by 19 April
>> (early submissions for early approval for early FY14 implementation due 22
>> March)****
>> ** **
>> In the attachments (and on the Wiki) you will find the presentation that
>> includes complete timeline for both of these processes.****
>> ** **
>> Additionally, please find the Process, Guidelines, Criteria and Template
>> needed to complete the Additional Budget requests.  Both the Finance team
>> and the Staff Liaisons from Policy, including Registry and Registrar, will
>> work with you to complete your requests as needed.****

>> I have attached the latest Community Leader list with your corresponding

>> controller at icann.org is the mailbox to send all questions and your
>> completed request forms.****
