Ok, looks like I”m the 3rd or 4th person to post this to the Council list. Hazards of me working backwards though my inbox, I suppose.

Thank you,

Subject: [So-ac-sg-cleaders] Public comment on Reserve Fund - Message from the ICANN CFO

Dear Community Leaders:

Please read the message from the ICANN CFO.

---------------------

Dear All,

This email is to inform you of the public comment on the ICANN Reserve Fund which has just been opened yesterday (see link below). It focuses on updating the rationale and the target level that the ICANN Reserve Fund should have.

Community input is critical on this topic as the Reserve Fund is THE pillar of ICANN’s financial stability and sustainability. The Community input will help with the definition of rationale, and contribute to setting the target level. This is key to then determine the mechanisms that the Organization should put in place to reach and maintain the Reserve Fund.

We will engage with everyone interested on this topic during ICANN60 for those who will be present. Looking forward to seeing you there. If you have questions on the content, please submit them as public comments as they will also help others, otherwise feel free to reach out to me.
