Dear Dr. Twomey,

I am writing on behalf to the GNSO council with a urgent request for  
travel
funding for all GNSO council members for the New Delhi meeting.  A  
strong
majority of those in the council, with no dissent, have requested  
that all GNSO
council members receive the same consideration for their travel expenses
as Nomcom Appointees  to the council receive.  This support should be  
at the
same level as is received by Members of the ICANN Board.

The urgency of the situation, though the request has been a standing  
request
for a while now,  is because  several council members have indicated  
that they
will not be able to attend the meeting in New Delhi without such  
support.
The Council appreciates your prompt consideration of this request.   
We look
forward to receiving the requested travel expense authorization soon.


Thank you,

Avri Doria
Chair, GNSO Council
