One of the main talking points of ICANN 5 was the budget for the current and the following year. This subject was a major talking point of the Public forum, after a keen discussion had passed it had become apparent that there should be certain aspects of ICANN whoch needed the majority of the budget. The main talking point was on which aspects were a priortiy to budget avaiable. The Follwing were classed as a high priority:
Provide timely and responsive staff support to the policy-making activities of the Board, its Supporting Organization Councils and other advisory bodies as needed, including policy implementation, preparation of legal agreements.
Meet operational commitments of service programs, including IANA, root servers, registrar accreditation, membership.
Conduct an active education and outreach program that supports public participation in ICANN policy-making activities, including public meetings, electronic forums, hardcopy publications.
Carry out the general management and administrative responsibilities of the corporation in an efficient and cost effective manner.
Another major talking point and development of the event was the discussion on the AT-Large election process and the structure of the group. On previous [[ICANN]] events it had been decided, that the group was only to consist of 18 members.

*2 elected from Africa
