<div>Hi Stephanie,</div>
<div id="AppleMailSignature"><br>
</div>
<div id="AppleMailSignature">Unfortunately we only received the
room and time yesterday. We were initially scheduled against the
ICANN Budget Meeting and the NCSG meeting with the Board. That
was unacceptable. Now that we've had the first NCSG FC meeting
at an ICANN meeting in recent memory (something our Charter
strongly suggests should occur every Meeting) hopefully this is
something that can be scheduled in an appropriate time slot on
the official schedule with proper advance notice in the future.
At least that is the hope.</div>
<div id="AppleMailSignature"><br>
</div>
<div id="AppleMailSignature">Thanks to all those who attended.
Great questions - our guests were duly impressed. Lots of work
ahead - look forward to working with everyone on the budget
process going forward.</div>

<div>The new ICANN bylaws give the community a
special responsibility for the ICANN budget. We’ve
responded in the NCSG by revitalizing our Finance
Committee and now need to ramp it up to fully
participate in the Empowered Community. We’ve put
together a program to help NCSG members fully
understand the budget, the process and the way you
can help shape the outcome!</div>
