Re: [council] GNSO Review: Board Resolution

[Ross Rader <ross@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Apologies Liz -

I don't think I'm being clear with my original question. Let me rephrase.

Understanding that the board has authorized staff to spend up to 
$150,000 to conduct this review, what are the exact financial terms 
entered into with this contractor? i.e. how much can we actually expect 
to spend and over what term.
In all candor, I'd simply prefer to review the contract directly myself 
in order to draw my own conclusions, but I'm not sure if management 
policy will permits this level of transparency. If the contract can be 
published, I would prefer that option, otherwise please bear with my 
questions. :)
