[Chapter-delegates] Fw: [CYBERTEL] "The Future of the U.S. Government's Role in ICANN, Internet Addressing and Internet Governance"

[Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond]

Hello Everyone,

I wonder if anybody from ISOC and/or an ISOC Chapter will go there. I don't 
know the ins and outs of the hosting organisation, but it might be 
worthwhile to make the ISOC point of view known at a location which seems 
close to a decision source.
Warmest regards,

Olivier
