[Ccwg-auctionproceeds] Need for use-cases ?

[Daniel Dardailler]

Hello Marika, all

In one of the survey we filled a few weeks ago, I suggested the 
following to help us better understand the constraints we're going to 
face in scoping the funding.

Is the topic of use-cases development on our agenda for some later call 
?

I would suggest other participants also send their ideas on the list for 
use-cases of potential projects to be funded by the auction benefits, 
just to evaluate them, and categorize them maybe.

This should of course be done without any CoI issue in mind, but mostly 
as a speculative study at this point. E.g. I suggest funding going to 
wikipedia below, although I have nothing to do with them, and have no 
intention to apply for grant on their behalf (which should not prevent 
me in our discussions from defending their case or the opposite).











(the survey was: https://fr.surveymonkey.com/results/SM-ZXCS2DJG/
  - and I can't find a way to link to as specific response, e.g. mine. 
It's also hard to find a survey based on a name)

Q4.

We need to come up with use-cases of potential project grants and submit 
those to the 501c3 "authority" so that they evaluate if it's beyond 
ICANN's mission and therefore at risk of losing the non-for-profit 
status (and nobody wants that).

Examples off my mind:
   - funding open source projects implementing open internet tools and 
standards
   - grant going to wikimedia to improve their multilingual and 
annotation support
   - funding OpenStand (IETF/W3C/IEEE) standard horizontal activities 
(testing, accessibility, internationalization, device independence, etc)
   - funding a free training program (mooc) to develop and run technical 
internet/web courses in the five RIR regions
   - support security and privacy R&D in Internet and Web protocols
   - funding to run a free "common" service distributing anonymized road 
traffic gps data (or pick your favorite internet data topic) to everyone 
on the Internet
   - funding r&d in next generation tcp/ip/dns/http protocols
   - funding r&d in next generation html/css/js formats
   - funding r&d in ng mobile network with better dns/ip capacity
