Comment Period Extended on Travel Support Policies

13 March 2008

The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers has extended the
public comment period on the development of Travel Support policies for
volunteers who make ICANN’s community-based work possible.

Volunteers from across the globe support ICANN’s work by serving on
ICANN’s various Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees. The
goal of this assessment of travel support policies is to update current
policies, develop a consistent approach to participation and travel
support, and determine what is sustainable and reasonable in terms of
the budget.

While this not a formal policy development process as defined in ICANN
Bylaws, input is being sought and will be used in the spirit of the
commitment to openness and transparency.

The comment period is being extended by a week and will close on 24
April 2008.

The comment forum, as well as background information, is available
online at http://www.icann.org/public_comment/#travel-policy.
Please submit comments to: <travel-support-policy@xxxxxxxxx>
