Overall type of projects to be funded will be decided by the CCWG (if 
it indeed makes any such restrictions). Adherence to the ICANN 
Mission and Goals will be a pre-requisite. Detailed funding decisions 
will be the job of the process/infrastructure recommended by the CCWG 
and approved by the Board. Your specific suggestion will surely be up 
to the latter body. Conflict of interest guidelines will explicitly 
preclude CCWG members advocating specific projects that they may 
later be submitting.

I cannot imagine the ALAC doing anything other than to have one CCWG 
Member per region, chosen according to our normal processes which 
will include a wide-spread call for Expressions of Interest.This is 
what we have always done before and regional balance is the reason 
that the process allows five Members per AC/SO.
