Re: [council] Revised Community Travel Support Procedure for FY09
I agree with Philip about this. I'm very concerned that after all this time and effort to make a council that functions (can attend mtgs), the proposal is for each constituency to send a single person to mtgs. ICANN is badly broken as an organization. All council members should be at council meetings to do council work.

It is deflecting effort from policy to admin, it ignored the good advice given during public comments, it is divisive, it is mean, it is confused, it is mathematically inept.Is the Council and its policy making activity worth more than 0.3% of ICANN's total budget?Clearly not in the eyes of ICANN management.We should condemn this policy as a Council and request Board reconsideration.Philip IP JUSTICE Robin Gross, Executive Director 1192 Haight Street, San Francisco, CA 94117 USA p: +1-415-553-6261 f: +1-415-462-6451 w: http://www.ipjustice.org e: robin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
