Dear At Large RALO and GNSO Constituency Leaders,

I am pleased to report that the CROPP-FY14 (CROPP) continues to progress.

We now have six registered Pilot Program Coordinators (PPCs) in the system – from the NCUC, NPOC and AFRALO (see CROPP Contacts). I have heard that several of you are in the process of setting up your community processes for assessing program proposals from your members and that research is proceeding on identifying outreach opportunities at events for the rest of the ICANN fiscal year.

The Community Regional Outreach Pilot Program (FY14) wiki space has been experiencing many page views and is open 24/7 to provide information and to receive your community regional trip proposals. 

Please remember, in addition to approval from your community leadership and the ICANN Stakeholder Engagement Vice President in the region of the proposed travel, before you will be able to submit any trip proposals, Staff needs to set up the appropriate permissions/authorization on the wiki for each Pilot Program Coordinator (PPC).  For that to be accomplished, we need from you the name and email information for each of your “coordinators.”  You'll recall that you can identify up to two PPCs for your community.

Even if you are not ready to submit a proposal, it is worth getting your PPCs’ information into the system. When you are ready, please send your coordinator names and contact information to me Robert Hoggarth and Janice Douma Lange and we will get them the necessary wiki credentials issued as soon as possible.

Training and other tutorial materials can be found on the Program Tools & Resources page of the CROPP wiki space. We remain available to provide individual training sessions to any coordinators that you identify throughout the program year. 

If you or members of your community still have questions after having had an opportunity to review the wiki space materials (see the CROPP Overview Documents), please contact Janice or me. We are both going to be in Buenos Aires for ICANN 48 and will be happy to meet with you to provide more information or answer your specific questions about the program.

Looking forward to seeing many of you in Buenos Aires!

Best regards,

Rob
