[registrars] Feedback Requested: ICANN Travel Support Policy

[Clarke D. Walton]

Greetings RC Members:

First up, I want to extend a warm and sincere thank you to all the RC members who contributed feedback for our first Position Paper earlier this month (re GNSO Reform).  We're putting the finishing touches on that Paper now and it should be ready to circulate shortly.

Today I'm writing you because I need your feedback about a new subject:  ICANN'S Travel Support Policy.

Below is a short overview:

"Explanation: ICANN is looking to create a documented, consistent policy that makes it clear when, for whom, and how ICANN will provide travel support for the wide range of volunteers who make ICANN's community-based work possible. As ICANN becomes a more mature institution, it is important that we determine the proper approach to participation and travel support, and determine what is sustainable."

More information is available here:  http://www.icann.org/public_comment/#travel-policy

If you attended the recent Delhi meeting you might recall some live discussion concerning the Travel Policy.

A PowerPoint presentation from the Delhi meeting is available here: https://delhi.icann.org/files/TravelSupportExpenseDiscussion_0208.pdf , and a transcript of the session is available here:  https://delhi.icann.org/files/Delhi-WS-TravelPolicy-13feb08.txt.  Please have a quick look at these docs for a full overview.

ICANN has provided us with a 30 day comment period. The clock began running last week, so please send me your comments as soon as possible.

To ensure that we meet ICANN's deadline for submitting our Position Paper, please send me your comments before Friday, April 11.

Please e-mail your comments to: clarke.walton at waltonfirm.com ... Thank you!
