[NCUC-DISCUSS] Replenishment Strategy for the ICANN Reserve Fund Webinar 1 March 2018 1700 UTC

[Thato Mfikwe]

Hi Joash,


You can find and download the draft public comment document here
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/draft-reserve-fund-12oct17-en.pdf>,
it seems to carry a lot of insightful information about where the Reserve
Fund started and the current status.
Also find the link
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/report-comments-reserve-fund-08jan18-en.pdf>
to community reports on Public comment proceedings which has more in-depth
information on community views and comments on the Reserve Fund, I hope
this helps.
