Hi Rafik,

Yes, I have asked before, and I am reiterating the request by asking again.

I think it is important that we have transparency around how much is being spent on staff travel and to which events, particularly when ICANN org is seeking to reduce its spend on community travel. It is not an insignificant chunk of the budget that we are talking about; from what I understand, it is over $10 million a year.

I just noticed that another data set I requested has been proposed to be deleted:

Full details of any events sponsored by ICANN, including event name, location, date(s), whether the support was one-off or recurring, and the nature of the support (if financial, including figures in USD);

I think this data set is very important, and I would most definitely review it regularly, as would, I expect, other parts of the community.

Thanks,

Ayden

I think we made the same point regard staff travel several times in different public comments. to be honest, I am personally not interested in such information, other PC members can chime in and support or not.
