[NCSG-FC] Proposed FC meeting Feb 2019

[Ayden Férdeline]

Hi all,

I have drafted a comment on the budget and shared it on the NCSG-Discuss list. If the Finance Committee has any questions regarding the contents, I stand ready to answer them.

Best wishes, Ayden

I would suggest that folks on the finance committee address the NCSG comment now, Austin has done a draft.  It would appear nobody has bothered with this and it is rather important, due Feb 11.

The proposed meeting can be held during the first week of February and upon you confirmation,  will ask Maryam to setup a Doodle for us, so please confirm the suitability of the first week because I hope in the 2nd or 3rd week of February that we have an open meeting with the community before ICANN64.
