[Chapter-delegates] IMAGINE Africa mailing list (was: Satellite based Internet for the developing world (video))

[WWWhatsup]

I just spoke with Prof. Zurbuchen on the phone. He tells
me that they are seriously intending to try and push the 
project through. He was, until I contacted him, unaware
of the existence of ISOC  but, after i gave him a little info,
was very happy to interact with members to discuss and
further this project, and enthusiastically welcomed my suggestion
that I form a mailing list expressly for that purpose - with the
caveat that certain technical details are covered by non-
disclosure agreements.

Thus I have set up a list at
http://lists.isoc-ny.org/listinfo.cgi/imagine_africa-isoc-ny.org
and enrolled Prof Zurburchen and Joan Ervin, one of
the students involved in the project.

Please subscribe there and feel free to fire away with
questions or other helpful info.

The powerpoint slides used in the google presentation will
be made available.
