I had hoped to join this call, but a rescheduled meeting means I'll likely miss it. Couple of things: Next APTLD meeting, Bangkok, October 24-25, program available <http://www.aptld.org/bangkokOctober2007/APTLD%20BKK%20Program%20v%201.2.pdf
IGF -- saw it on the agenda and as a member of the IGF advisory group this is what I thought I might be able to provide info about/answer questions about. IGF will start in seven weeks: 12-15 November (Rio). Only now getting down to business of speaker selection for the main sessions, rather late (mainly due to the late appointment of the advisory group by the secretary general.) Sessions are: Critical Internet Resources Access Diversity Openness Security Taking Stock and the way forward Emerging Issues Details of the topics suggested to be discussed under these themes available in a draft programme <http://www.intgovforum.org/Rio_Meeting/DraftProgramme.24.09.2007.rtf> (last updated Sept 24, so is current.) Possible speakers have been recommended by various stakeholder groups, including recommendations submitted by individuals (inc self recommendations). Not many people from the Asia Pacific region have been recommended, and very few women. Other than this problem the pool of potential speakers is pretty good. Seven weeks away, so there is very little time to suggest new people, unless you know people who will be in Rio it is probably not worth suggesting new names now. Sorry, I realize it's probably frustrating to hear this kind of comment. Perhaps of interest to ALAC, there will be a "Meeting Point/Village Square" area where people can set up a table (posters, etc) to showcase their activities. May be worth finding out what ICANN is planning and whether ALAC can be part of any ICANN space. More information on the IGF website <http://www.intgovforum.org/> Last - ICANN NomCom. Has the AP RALO selected its delegate for the 2008 NomCom? Time is running out, the person has to be able to get to LA, that means having flights arranged, perhaps a visa, etc. Thanks, Adam
