firm estimate of<br>
costs for travel for Councilors asap. If we 'ballpark' an estimate of $3,000 <br>
USD for short policy meetings, and $5,000 for the week long ICANN face to<br>
face meetings, will that provide a firm enough estimate? I would also<br>
propose that perhaps we plan to budget two policy development meetings face <br>
to face, outside of the three ICANN meetings.<br>
<br>
I am happy to work with Glen on a straw proposal for the budget if
we can<br>
get a general agreement for a "template" approach. Perhaps
Ken would also<br>
be willing, as part of the Adm. Planning group to work on this?<br>
