[Telecentres] WGIG nominations have been submitted

[Stuart Mathison, FDC]

Sorry folks - especially Andy, Tai, David and Scott - that I didn't get back
to you in time re: the WGIG business. A few days annual leave beckoned, and
there is no connectivity whatsoever on Rainbow beach in Queensland,
Australia (That's the whole idea! All those in favor of changing
"Information Society" to "Surfing, fishing and generally-having-a-good-time
Society" please vote now).

Subject: [Telecentres] WGIG nominations have been submitted


Two minutes ago I submitted the following people for nomination to the WGIG:

Karin Delgadillo Poepsel (Ecuador), karin at chasquinet.org
Matyas Gaspar (Hungary), gaspar.matyas at axelero.hu
David Leeming (Solomon Islands), leeming at pipolfastaem.gov.sb
Taran Rampersad (Trinidad and Tobago), cnd at knowprose.com

Stuart Mathison was also nominated, but we did not receive
acknowledgment from him in time, so I followed the recommendation of
substituting David instead, since he said yes and is also in the Pacific
region. As for Karin and Gaspar, <grin>, I hope both of you are
interested, since your colleagues felt you'd be great candidates. If
not, please let me know and we can easily retract your nomination.


Again, thanks to everyone for chiming in at the last minute; now that
we're up and running, it should be much easier for us to participate in
these processes more easily and without such an absurd time crunch.


thanks,
ac
