will be very useful and I will send it to the board as an idea to be kept in
mind.

No, there is no such rule, but California has a minimum wage (which is a bit
above US federal minimum wage), and I thought fixing the compensation as
factor of the minimum wage, allow the compensation to change if they change
the minimum wage due to increase of cost of living. What I fear, if you
don't use such a rule, is that successive boards will slowly increase this
compensation until it is not reasonable, or that due to community pressure
not touch it, and make it unattractive.

The other part interesting in compensating the board for its work, is that
it may allow board members to work outside board meetings. I have seen in
various groups, you read documents, etc... only during group meetings... but
that's ethics issues, and not sure compensation can really change that.

Also, remember there were graph of attendance of people at the various
boards and workgroup meeting in ICANN. May be this compensation is trying to
fix the poor attendance of some, starting at the top...?

Hi Franck
I am not sure if I understood - are you saying there is an special rule in
California that allows not for profit organization to pay their board
members let's say  2 minimum local salaries, as something else not
considered real compensation of these members? Since I am not English native
is that correct?
Thanks for explain 
best
