Subject: Re: [nc-budget] NAMES COUNCIL BUDGET COMMITTEE MEETING
MATERIALS
Hi to all:
Well, it seems that I won't be able to participate of this
teleconference, so I hope that anyone in this group would be able to
read this message to be transmitted during the teleconference.
1. About AFNIC intellectual property issues: I have read the document
sent by Elizabeth and attached to the previous message sent by Roger
and I want to Congratulate AFNIC for such a proposal. Please, go ahead
with this. Also I want to add that if the adaptations made to the
voting software for the GA be added. Also I want to suggest to add the
following: "AFNIC hereby grants to ICANN a fully paid-up, perpetual,
irrevocable, non-transferable, worldwide license to use and have to be
used, for ICANN's and all structures within ICANN including any group
appointed or formed by ICANN Board and/or any SO or permanent groups
that are part of ICANN structure, and any other strucutre within ICANN
own purposes, the software listed in exhibit B...".
Of course is solely saying "ICANN's own purposes" is understood as
everything within ICANN (SOs, Committees, TFs, WG, Committees, etc),
then of course that it is not needed to clarify futher.
2. Is there any possibility for ICANN mirroring DNSO website? I think
this should be a practice in the future.
3. About credit Constituency payments (oldest vs newwest debts). I
want to request to the consideration of this committee NCDNHC special
situation. As Diane Schroeder can also tell you, we are in the process
of collecting money amongst our members, sending invoices, etc.
In fact, many of them needs hardcopy invoices and invitations etc, you
know that procedures in the Non-Commercial organizations are less
flexible than in commercial entities. So, please, consider not to apply
the collected money towards oldest debts since this would
prevent us from right to vote in the NC.
4. Also I want to make the formal request of forgiving NCDNHC debts of
the year 2000. This would make easier for us to collect funds for
2001 and 2002, since, and as you have realized if we are finally
collecting the money now at the end of 2001, then it would be difficult
to make that our members make another payment in two or in three months
for year 2002. The NCDNHC would appreaciate a lot your kindness and
help.
5. About GLenn invoices, I though we had approoved them already. For
the future, I think that we must be informed about the activity to be
made before execute it. For example, if a teleconference is made, then
previously advice of telephone rates, etc. I don't think she has to make
more calls than the ones that are for her participation in
teleconferences.
I though that ISP connectivity was Glen responsibility.
I think we must clarify what kind of expenses Glen can be charge to the
Names Council, and what kind of expenses she have to request for advice
to the Budget Committee in advance, because little expenses made month
by month probably can be the equivalent of the same amount to pay for
AFNIC, for example. We have to control both big and little expenses.
Of course, travel expenses are already clear for me.
I am agree with payment of invoice: N° 200111 MI, N° 200111 TC, N°
200111 TR and FACTURE N° F0111-06242
6. About 2002. The NCDNHC is not able to compromise more money, in
fact, the NCDNHC would like that Budget Committee works towards decrease
of the Budget to be payed by constituencies instead of an increase,
since we cannot guarantee to be able to collect more funds than
what was requested to us previous years.
Since Names Council aprooved already to contract Secretariat and ISP
Services, then we cannot be against such payments. However, we cannot
support more items in the Budget.
The Secretariat (Included AFNIC), Secretariat travel expenses and lets
say a line of $1000.00 for communications expenses regarding
teleconference calls to be made by the Secretariat, are the only Budget
I am agree to be made for 2002.
I propose anything else be gotten by sponsorship and I encourage this
Committee to work on sponsorships in advance. Of course, and also
hoping that ICANN aproove to support financially DNSO activities with
all the items proposed by Roger and Glen.
7. Contract with Lodger INC: I just would like to see advances and a
draft of the contract with Lodger INC (Secretariat and ISP serivces).
8. I read about Expenses Breakdown. I would like to know what is this
really and also when we authorized such jobs be executed (it seems to me
this expenses was outside the things we have to pay already to AFNIC for
their services), also when and where such jobs were executed and why.
Thank you!!
Best Regards
