Purpose (brief): Join us in creating ICANN's annual operating plan and budget 
for FY15, which describes planned activities for the year ahead (from 1July 
2014- 30 June 2015). These activities are based on ICANN's strategic 
objectives, fiscal year priorities and community input. The draft FY15 
Operating Plan and Budget document will be posted for public comment from 8 May 
- 1 July.

ICANN is seeking general feedback as well as feedback on the focus areas, 
objectives, goals, portfolios, projects and budget allocations. Your feedback 
is important to help ensure we have a clear roadmap for the year ahead.

Next steps:

ICANN will take into consideration the feedback received and respond as 
necessary, before submitting the draft document for Board consideration.
