[NA-Discuss] New Travel Policy - **IMPORTANT**

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

Evan and all,

  I don't know about the "Greater Good" part, but otherwise
yes, ICANN isn't and never has been interested in paying for
anything.  Travel expenses not withstanding.  But if you kiss
up to the ICANN staff and Bod, they might be willing to
toss a few $$ towards travel expenses.  So sing their praises
to the rafters, bring gifts, ect., and you will likely get some
consideration.
