[council] Proposed approach to travel funding in the ICANN operating plan

[Sophia B]

Marilyn,

Could you please describe what you mean by:

1- Short policy meetings.  What is included, air ticket, hotel & meal,
number of days etc..
2- Week long ICANN meeting FTF, the same.

Note: I am hoping your budget estimates for the travel cost of an
international ticket /trip is different from local. If not please advise.

Additionally, it is in any corporate travel policy, not sure have to ck
labor law, that anything over 6hrs s/b business class.  This should also be
consistent with current ICAAN travel policy.  Considering that we are not
paid, I assumed the existing travel policy of ICANN is fair/consistant with
that of most organization that actually are on paid travel.

regards,
Sophia
