Hi all,

These are just some of the things that I noticed from today's call that may
be of interest to you:

1.  Again this year, ICANN will not have set its budget priorities until
AFTER we are expected to have put in our budget requests.  So, again, we
will be moving in the blind, shooting at a moving target.

2.  This next year there will be no short track as the powers that be
thought that we all found that too confusing.  Everything will be short
tracked.

3.  When doing budget requests, DO NOT put in any requests for travel to
outreach events.  This will now be handled by the new CROPP program.  More
information will be coming out from CROPP as to the exact parameters and
procedures to be used.

4.  The CROPP Review Team is to be comprised of volunteers from each RALO's
Outreach Group and Finance Board Sub Committee Group (one from each,
totaling 10).  Eduardo is on the Outreach Group but as he is part of the
CROPP Team, he cannot serve.  This left me serving on both groups but with
the happy addition of Allan Skuce on the FBSC so, between the two of us, we
can have these positions covered.
