Any comments or questions are welcome.
Hope it could be approved soon then we can focus on other preparation work. Also, flight cost is increasing so sooner is better.

Okay, so, the bottom line of this request is $3950.
I am generally in favor of these planning FADs. However, we previously agreed that we would only allocate money for the three already-accepted FADs (Docs, Cloud, and Design), leaving the rest for the regional budgets.
I had suggested that at the end of each quarter, if there is money unspent regionally, it could be reallocated to central funding for things like FADs, but there wasn't agreement on that. Rather, regions should have a chance to reallocate their own planning locally before that happens (assuming they can find high-value uses for it, not just spending for its own sake).
Sooooooo... we need to talk about that and what we want to do at this point.
