Ekr, if we decide to reimburse for the expenses created by the position in the IAOC we have to create also rules what is reimbursed and on what terms. E.g., in what are reasonable costs (traveling in economy, business, first?) etc. Especially difficult is to lay down the price for the labor invested to the IAOC work. I think what I have proposed is in line with the current practice in IAB/IESG as well, for instance. Cheers, Jonne.
