[council] ICANN Travel Support for 1 additional GNSO attendee to LA Meeting of CCWG - 25 & 26 September

[Winterfeldt, Brian J.]

Dear colleagues:

Greg Shatan has also expressed interest in receiving funding to attend the CCWG meeting in LA.  In support of Greg's bid, I would note the following, as provided by Greg:


*         I have been a very active participant in the CCWG-Accountability.  I joined at the beginning, and I have attended roughly 84% percent of the calls/meetings, more than any non-member except the funded ATRT expert (Avri Doria) and one other participant.  I believe that I have been an active and helpful contributor to the work of the group as well (not merely attending for attendance's sake).

*         I've also volunteered for both WP1 and WP2 and participated in the vast majority of both group's meetings and in the creation of the output from those groups.

*         I also volunteered for the Legal Subcommittee and was active in that group as well.

*         I am currently actively involved in WP4, dealing with the potential Human Rights bylaw and underlying rationale, etc.

*         I have been very active on the mailing lists for each for each of the above groups as well

*         As a member of the CWG-Stewardship, I can provide a valuable perspective and assist with issues of linkages and dependencies

*         I believe I can be particularly useful on legal matters, as I have worked with the lawyers in both the CWG and CCWG, and I am a practicing US lawyer myself (but I believe I have learned how to facilitate our counsel's work and the work of the CCWG while not overplaying the "lawyer card")

*         IPC members who are participating in the CCWG-Accountability have urged me to apply for this slot


Thank you for considering Greg for this opportunity.

Best regards,

Brian
