[Alac-sc-outreach] ICANN CROP FY19 ready for use by ICANN community

[Olivier MJ Crépin-Leblond]

Dear Maureen,

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.
How do we get responses to this? What is the process to ask GSE what it
supports?

To your question why there is no SO/AC representative in these
decisions, the answer is simple: these programs are staff led.
Kindest regards,

Olivier
