[NCUC-EC] CROPP request from David Cake

[William Drake]

Hi

You’ll recall he CROPP program offering 5 slots of “in-region” travel support for “outreach” attendance at other meetings, I’ve described it several times at CD meetings and on list.  We’ve never applied (At Large has been all over this) but should, and I will be doing so for EuroDIG in a bit.  In the meanwhile, David has gone ahead and done one, see below.  I propose we approve the request. We could even take note of having done so whenever we next hold a formal meeting, I guess this would make someone happy.

Cheers

Bill

ICANN also seems to have, at some points, gone from 5 regions to 8, and Australasia is now separate to Asia, but apparently this rule can be bent with the approval of the relevant regional director, who I think has to approve it anyway.
