[council] on GNSO travel funding
There is another aspect to gnso council travel funding that we haven't quite touched upon: the need for the GNSO to be a fully funded organ within ICANN. In some sense, the GNSO is supposed to act as a "check" against ICANN, the organization. We cannot allow the GNSO, the "bottom-up" policymaking arm, to be starved of resources while ICANN (the organization) grows in leaps and bounds. I think a fundamental issue here is providing the GNSO with the resources that it needs to do its job within ICANN and thus ensure the "bottom-up" value is protected. Robin
