RE: [registrars] ICANN Budget

["Bhavin Turakhia" <bhavin.t@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I believe the next step from our side (and Elana correct me if I am wrong)
was that we as a constituency would come up with a budget which all of us
are in favour of and then tell ICANN that this is what we are willing to
approve

This would contain -

* total budget amount
* registrar contribution
* fair and equitable allocation method
* cap figures

Etc

Is the BAG taking up this responsibility?
