I echo James comments.
I want everyone to know that I've spoken to David Olive and have encouraged consideration of changes  to ICANN's travel support policy. I've been told that a proposal for change will be forthcoming. We have members of the CCWG with attendance records of under 15% receiving full ICANN support while others with 90% + attendance records, including leaders of some subgroups, receive no support. That just isn't right.
The next major project, that based on the EWG, is scheduled to have a number of F2F meetings. I will not vote on Council to proceed with the project until this funding inequity is addressed. 
In the interim, thanks so much for your support.
Ed

Dear Ed and James,

 


I know you are eager for word on whether to proceed with flight and hotel bookings for the CCWG meeting in Paris on 17-18 July.  Having heard back publicly or privately from all but one member, I think it’s safe to say that the EC has approved
 travel support for your participation as per the policy, 


 





A member may receive support of up to US $1,000. Covered travel costs include conference-related airfare, visas or related fees, lodging, and airport taxis. If the actual cost of these items is greater than $1,000 the member will be
 responsible for the difference. NCUC cannot provide a per diem or cover other expenses.





 


So please go ahead, and just submit your receipts to Milton upon return.


 


Thanks for helping to represent NCUC :-)


 


Bill
