Call for volunteers – GNSO Operating Plan and Budget Review drafting team


ICANN has published the Draft Budget and Operating Plan for FY 16 for public 
comment<https://www.icann.org/public-comments/op-budget-fy16-2015-03-18-en>.

In as much as it may affect the GNSO Council  in its role as the manager of the 
policy development process, there may be potential for the Council to 
participate in this process. A suggestion would be to review the draft budget 
with respect to its effect on the role of the Council and consider responding 
with a joint statement.


At the Council meeting on 16 April 2015, Council approved forming a drafting 
team to address this concern and provide a comment to the public comment forum 
before the closing date, 1 May 2015

Purpose:

·        draft an online document,

·        build consensus on the mailing list because there is no Council 
meeting before the close of public comments

Focus on:

·        the role of the Council as policy manager and without displacing the 
role or positions of the various SG/Cs

·        resources to support the policy management function

Timeline:

·        complete work 28 April 2015

·        review and submit to public comment forum 1 May 2015

Volunteers: Amr Elsadr, Susan Kawaguchi, Stephanie Perrin, Carlos Raúl 
Gutierrez,


A mailing list will be  created to facilitate the work
Thank you.
Kind regards,

Glen
