Hi all,

I wanted to provide the latest update about transition-related expenses. The IETF LLC Board has met via teleconference a few times over the last month <https://ietf.org/about/groups/llc-board/minutes/2018/ <https://ietf.org/about/groups/llc-board/minutes/2018/>>. To make further progress on a variety of transition-related tasks, the board and the contractors (IAD, secretariat, legal, and project management) are planning a two-day face-to-face meeting in December in the San Francisco bay area. Because the transition is funded by ISOC, we will be following ISOC’s travel policy <https://www.internetsociety.org/about-internet-society/governance-policies/travel-policy-trustees/ <https://www.internetsociety.org/about-internet-society/governance-policies/travel-policy-trustees/>>. The permanent board will need to specify its own travel policy (in consultation with the community, of course) once it gets seated. The approximate cost of this meeting will be $12,000, to be covered by the “transition expenses” delineated in the transition budget previously circulated [1]. We anticipate having a host donate the meeting space.

Regards,
Alissa
