Hi all,
I know there are folks in this list that watch/follow ICANN related announcements.
For the sake of others that weren't aware and want to get involved; ICANN has posted a series of announcements this month and available from its website http://www.icann.org/announcements/
To summarise:
1) Cairo, Egypt will host ICANN's 33rd International Public Meeting from 2-7 November 2008.
2) ICANN is offering fellowships to this Cairo meeting. Applications will be accepted from now until 12:00 pm PDT (UTC -7) 3 July 2008. More information, as well as a link to the application for a fellowship, is available online at: http://www.icann.org/fellowships/
If you operate/manage your ccTLD registry or from government here's your chance to submit an application and be involved in the ccNSO and GAC.
3) Also if interested a draft FY09 Operating Plan and Budget is being posted for community review with the support of the Board Finance Committee (BFC). The plan is available at: http://www.icann.org/financials/proposed-opplan-budget-v1-fy08-09-17may08.pd... [PDF, 356K]
This draft plan is one more step in the planning cycle, to allow for additional review and feedback. A public comment period has been opened and will be closed on 17 June 2008. You can email comments directly at: op-budget-fy2009@icann.org
Please send me emails if you require further clarifications.
