<div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><p>Holy,</p><p>We are talking about the 4 different mechanism because we need to
figure this out. We have been working on this for a long time. We
are also working on what categories of projects to fund. We had
created a set of examples but have had to revise them based on
concerns by the Board but working on that as well. We cannot share
these with you yet because they are not agreed. We have also
heard from various funds and charities and people who run these to
learn about how they manage the funds. I am very much concerned
about the funds being used to reduce ICANN's debt, but it seems
that the ALAC members on Auction proceeds are split on this. Many
want little or no money to go to shore up the reserves, while
others prefer to have about 25% go. I too am concerned with the
beneficiaries, but we cannot set that now because we cannot
specify any group right now, just the types of activities we are
interested and they type of capacity building.</p><p>The survey went into all sorts of details such as which of these

Pretty any action that you can think of on these 4 mechanisms.</p><p>Option to would be working with a foundation not a charity. It
is 4 but with more of hands on by ICANN and the multi-stakeholder
community. <br>
</p><p>So the question really Vanda meant to ask is which of these
options would be cost effective, more transparent, more

could be different for each of these ideas.. Happy to answer any
questions. I have already taken the survey so know about all the
questions asked.</p><p>Cheers,<br>

First - thank you Vanda with sharing this with ALAC. I hope this
discussion can migrate somewhere beyond just this email so that
everyone can easily find and comment on it.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now, to be devil’s advocate. Why is the group seeking
comment on how the funds are managed rather than how they are
allocated. It seems to me that the most important question is
how the funds will be spent - and heaven knows ALAC has already
contributed to this discussion. Some of the suggestions over
time have been that the funds should support applications from
underserved areas, and/or help fund community (better defined)
applications. We also had concerns about some of the funds
being used to reduce ICANN debt. But all that was about
allocation - not the mechanism of allocation itself.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I am really less concerned with the allocation METHOD, and
more concerned with the beneficiaries of the allocation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>That said, I will comment on the options.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Option One: I am a bit concerned with yet another Department
within ICANN. They are - we are told - cutting back on
expenditure. Creating a new Department will be heading the other
way.</div>
<div>Option 2: I particularly do not favour Option 2 because it
assumes that the money may be spent on charitable purposes. If
the decision is to assist underserved areas, the focus will be
very different to ‘charitable purposes;</div>
<div>Option 3 & 4: I’d prefer something like a Foundation - so
that the funds really are separate, and so would be happier with
Options 3 or 4. I would prefer Option 4, but with the condition
that if it is to evaluate proposals (good idea) then it must
have multistakeholder membership and not simply be a creature of
ICANN Org. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Hope that helps</div>
