[NCUC-EC] CIVICRM Costs/Request

[Michael Karanicolas]

Hi,

Thanks for your email. Sounds like an important issue to address. You
mention that "ICANN has set aside an annual budget for NPOC/NCUC/NCSG
for membership management system. It went unused by NCUC last year."

What is the amount of this budget? Presumably we lost last year's,
having not spent it?

Renata or Farzi, can you confirm?

Best,

Michael
