[Chapter-delegates] OECD Future of the Internet Economy -16th June, in Seoul

[Sivasubramanian Muthusamy]

Hello,

I did apply and received a mail two days ago, which first said I am one of
the beneficiaries and this was immediately followed by another that said
"Please Disregard the earlier message" but the second mail also said I am
one of the beneficiaries, I was a bit unsure so I did not bring this into
the chapter delegates list.

It appears that I am given a partial grant of 1000 Euros. The maximum amount
of 1000 euros appear rigid, it barely covers the airfare in my case.

I saw a list of eleven other names, did any one else from ISOC apply ?

Also, I have asked them to connect me to the organizers so as to ask if I
can make a presentation. So far I have not received a reply.
