[CCWG-ACCT] For information: example of community interaction during the planning process - Dublin's planning workshop

Thu Nov 5 23:15:38 UTC 2015

To clarify:

  *   the information I provided in my earlier email illustrates one of the activities that happen during the annual planning/budget process, which has been commented upon in the discussions on the budget veto power. It does not contribute to the remaining transition work, and was not intending to respond to a specific request or question of anyone in the CCWG. If you are not interested in the annual planning/budget process, just ignore my email.
  *   I am unfamiliar with the request that Dr Eberhard Lisse is referring to below.
  *   Regarding the transition costs, if that is the object of the request, here is a link to the information that we have published so far: https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/iana-stewardship-project-costs-2015-10-16-en, where there is an entire section on legal costs, invoice by invoice. We are also working on providing additional information, following questions received in Dublin, which will be posted on the same page as the one linked to above, and that should address a portion of the topics that Dr Lisse has listed below. I will provide an update when available.
Thank you.
Best,

Xavier

How is this request relevant to the remaining work of the CCWG? I'd support receipt of these figures after our work is finished, but it seems irrelevant now, and would be an incomplete snapshot at best.

Regards,
Keith

Xavier,

I would prefer much more to just get the figures we requested.

All cost relating to the transition in a simple format, not some financials.

And I have requested the raw data used to produce the published ICANN meeting related travel costs a while ago, followed up once and not received a response from constituency travel support.

I want the same CSV/XLS data for all transition related travel.

I want the (wo)man hours put in by staff into the transition (at least ICG, CWG and CWG).

I want the consulting fees (not by names of course), and same for experts.

I want all legal fees.

You, the CFO, engaging us now, means we now have the right person to,ask.

Can you please provide us, in the spirit of accountability and transparency, with all the figures in an easily manageable format? And a timeline by when this will happen?

greetings, el

To illustrate a number of comments made in the past weeks/months on the positive developments of community input/interaction mechanisms embedded over the past 2 years into ICANN’s planning process, you can find attached an example of communication on the workshop that was held on Sunday night 18 October in Dublin, with the active participation of 15 community members, including remotely, and 4 board members from the Finance Committee.
This workshop is the second one held (the 1st was in Singapore at ICANN 52), and is confirming to be a valuable exercise of interactive exchange, allowing for direct input that can effectively be taken into account. We will definitely repeat such workshop experience and welcome further participation to them. This is an open type of interaction, there is no set requirement for participation. It is helpful that participants have a basic knowledge of ICANN’s planning process or another organization’s planning process, in order to have a more effective participation, but participating to these workshops is also a good way to catch up.
The email attached is addressed to a list of participants that has been built over the past 3 years, by adding anyone interested in the planning process to it. We use the list to send materials, notifications of upcoming milestones, invitations to webinars, and feedback after workshops or webinars. There is no limitation of any kind to be added to this distribution list and we invite anyone interested to provide my team or I with an email address to be added. Being on the list does not create any specific work requirement, but simply allows to participate if desired.
I am happy to answer any questions on this or any aspect of the planning process.
Thank you.
Best,

Xavier
