> Dear NCUC Members,
>
> Here is the second update from me on what we (the executive committee)
> have been doing for the past couple of months.
>
> 1. We drafted the operating procedures and put it up for public comment,
> you can find it here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uolqcYivX_
> KVOgPdjl3wB_aBkHyLcFkvzNsNU47BRQY/edit#
>
> 2. For our CROPP event
> <https://community.icann.org/display/croppfy17/CROPP-FY17+Home> this
> year, we arranged a two-day outreach in Johannesburg, which was very
> successful. Here is a brief report: https://community.
> icann.org/display/croppfy17/NCUC+Event+Assessment+1
>
> 3. CROP is not a pilot project anymore which means it is not temp, but
> they don't support events anymore either.  They only provide travel slots
> for members to go to outreach events. I will announce a call for
> application for CROP soon. CROP is travel support for regional outreach, it
> will be competitive so if you have a good idea for attending an event and
> promoting NCUC, tell us!
>
> 4. Our additional budget request (ABR) for IGF was approved (3 slots), our
> ABR for a public comment training was approved too (for the amount of
> 20,000 USD).
>
> 5. NCSG's ABR request was also approved which is for policy practicum and
> I will be working with ICANN staff, our EC, NPOC and current NCSG chair and
> the NCSG PC Chair to come up with a plan for implementation. Don't hesitate
> to contact me if you have ideas.
> (I have highlighted the decisions in the document ICANN provided and it's
> attached.)
>
> 6. Onboarding program which is a program for newcomers will be soon
> implemented. Thank you, Ayden, Louise and Kathy for all the efforts.
>
> 7. If you have not noticed, we have changed our website! And thanks to
> Michael and Tapani have a brand new S at the end of HTTP
>
> 8. Our workshop on providing order was approved to be held in IGF. This
> means we are now fully qualified to receive the three IGF travel slots. A
> call for application will be announced soon too.
>
> 9. We held an election due to the resignation of the Executive Committee
> rep of North America. Michael Karanikolas defeated abstain and is the brand
> new NA EC rep! so NA members don't hesitate to contact him if you want to
> get involved more.
>
> 10. We appointed Anriette to the nominating committee position at ICANN.
>
> 11. Our NCUC elections will be most probably held mid-November.
>
> 12. I had two 1:1 meetings with the ICANN CEO which I reported back to
> you.
>
> 13. Last but not least, our bylaws:  It is like Rostam's seven labours
> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rostam%27s_Seven_Labours> . But we have
> passed through major stages of approval and now it is left to Board to look
> at it and then put it up for public comments.
>
> Don't forget, we are here to help and give you information on how to get
> engaged with NCUC and ICANN. Keep contacting me and your Regional EC Rep
> for more information. You can find us here: https://www.ncuc.org/
