[ICANN meeting] reminder about NCSG-board meeting topics

[Sam Lanfranco]

Milton is both right, and a bit off here.
ICANN's barriers to entry are the cause
Transfer of financial resources is the result.
As well, this prevents building registry capacity in developing regions 
of the globe.
It also reduces registry level input, from those regions, into ICANN 
policy development.
Engagement requires, and builds, capacity.
