I hope not, but I think it would be good to mention that teh budget devlopment process involves a cooperative process boetween the ISOC and the IAD/IAOC. maybe a small change in section 2.2 would do the trick 3. The IAD and IAOC, in cooperation with the ISOC President/CEO and staff, shall develop an annual budget for the IASA. The budget must clearly identify all expected direct and indirect expenditures related to the IASA. ISOC, through its normal procedures, shall evaluate and adopt the IASA budget as part of ISOC's own budget process and commit to ensuring funds to support the approved budget.
