[NCUC-EC] announcing ICANN63 travel slot?

Wed Aug 29 15:22:42 CEST 2018

Dear All,

I believe that according the advice provided by Farzi we still have this
year to decide whether or not we are using this support exclusively to NCUC
members or if we are opening the selection to NPOC and NCSG as well - as we
did in this one - but as this selection is still subjected to NCUC EC I
believe that we should continue to perform by selecting the funded members
based on the quality of their outreach plans and application independently
of the approach we seek to follow - opening calls or using them for NCUC
only.

In that sense, I am also between Dina and Ben.

Dina provided a good application and is also supported by NPOC Leadership,
but I agree with Louise on the "her application might have benefitted from
a more concrete outline of how she has been working within PDPs - or tying
PDP experience as an observer with her policy writing". I very much
appreciate Dina's efforts regarding the Policy writing ad-hoc group she
tried to assemble, but I did not see it moving forward (and am not implying
it is her fault either).

On the other hand, we have Ben who we approved on a previous call and due
to personal reasons was not able to attend the meeting. Ben is has been
involved in the RDS and the RPMs working group and while we thought that
the Policy meeting would be a moment for him to make sense of what has been
discussed in the calls, he was not able to attend. If I am not mistaken,
when we chatted about his situation in PR, and the idea of re-considering
him for the subsequent call was at the table.

Given that I am very on the fence about the selection of the second
candidate, and that the two candidates are from EU and AF, I would be more
than happy to follow the advice from our EU and AF representatives.

And please, lets decide soon on this matter, the more we delay the decision
the harder it becomes to our funded members to find tickets within the
price range. Barcelona is in less than two months!

best,
B.
