    Dear Maureen,<br>
    <br>
    the ALAC had a session with CROP staff. Several questions were
    asked. Several answers were given, but I do not recall that we were
    given responses to the very argument that you make below. During the
    meeting I also asked what all of this "ICANN support" meant for a
    meeting, as we the end users are rarely ever told in advance that
    ICANN is supporting an initiative or other. Plus I made the point
    that the GSE budget is also being slashed, so it is likely that GSE
    will support less events than it currently is.<br>
    How do we get responses to this? What is the process to ask GSE what
    it supports?<br>
    <br>
    To your question why there is no SO/AC representative in these
    decisions, the answer is simple: these programs are staff led.<br>
    Kindest regards,<br>
    <br>
    Olivier<br>
