[FC-NCSG] ICANN Budget Request Process - deadlines - specific requests

[Robin Gross]

Dear NCSG Finance Committee Members:

Reminder of key deadlines:

March 22: Funding requests for this needs in the current FY (through  
July)
April 19: Regular Budget Requests for next FY

There has been some talk of requesting funds for NCSG to do an event  
at IGF this year and I think it is a good idea.  Another possibility  
of a project to request funds for is printing / production of an NCSG  
newsletter (a piece of paper we could physically hand to a person  
with info about NCSG, how to join, etc.).

Plus we need to request travel support for NCSG EC to attend ICANN  
meetings.  Remember *this* year is the first time ICANN has ever  
provided travel support NCSG-EC and it is only for this FY and only  
because I requested it in last year's budget process.  So I think we  
need to include it in this year's budget request to ICANN and perhaps  
ask that it be supplemented based on what we've learned in the last  
year.  Additionally NCUC and NPOC should be thinking about and making  
their requests to ICANN as well.

Also remember the next ICANN budget process meeting is 5 March.

Any other thoughts or suggestions on the ICANN budget request process  
and what NCSG should request?

Thanks much!
Robin
