Hello Dubai-ers<br>
<br>
Good news for those of you who are unaffiliated, the WCIT plenaries
and committee 5 are open to the public. While restricted this does
give you access to the main hall and plenty of opportunities to meet
with all present.<br>
<br>
I had proposed to Lea that for those who are interested in a daily
get together we could meet at the Cafe Nero at the main entrance to
the WTC and opposite the IBIS at 0830 hours. The WCIT day starts at
0930 except Friday when it starts at 0900. Although those on dels
may have other schedules. <br>
<br>
Hope to see you for coffee in the am.<br>
<br>
Matthew<br>
<br>
<br>

all the debate and
mobilization, and ITU
staff's refrain that the
meeting's fully
multistakeholder since
people can simply join
their national
delegations, a cursory
scan of the Announced
List of Participants as
of 27 November shows
1764 participants, only
a dozen or so that seem
obviously to be civil
society—half on the US
del, the others
scattered. Caveats
apply: a) It may be that
I just don't recognize
some individual and
organizational names so
this guesstimate's a
little low. b) In the
UN context (WSIS/IGF/CSTD
etc) and OECD the
technical community and
CS are separated, so
that's how I count. I
see more TC than CS
names on the list, and
while most of the former
work in the private
sector or for
administrative bodies
like the RIRs, there are
some people who are by
various standards in
both. c) The list is
being periodically
updated, so there may be
some late registrations.
All that said, the
number seems unlikely to
be terribly high. There
may be more CS just
coming and hanging
around in hopes of
getting into any open to
the public sessions (TBD
Monday), or otherwise
populating the hallways,
than there are on the
delegations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Who is going
to Dubai? We <i>really</i> want
to develop a
list of civil
society people
who will be in
Dubai for the
conference. We
think it would
be helpful for
those
attending WCIT
to know what
other CS
people will be
there, and to
develop a
rough plan for
coordinating
once they are
in
Dubai. Matthew
Shears, ISOC's
former policy
director who
has been
working on ITU
issues with
CDT, will be
in Dubai on
CDT's behalf.
He will not be
affiliated
with any
delegation. <b>If
you or someone
from your
organization
is going to be
in Dubai (with
or without
delegate
status), and
you'd like to
be in touch
with other
civil society
folks there,
please send
Matthew an
email letting
him know.

How can we
coordinate on
public
communication
about the
WCIT? We know
that many CSOs
will be
blogging,
tweeting, and
responding to
press
inquiries
about the WCIT
as it's
happening.
Given the
relatively
closed nature
of the event,
we know that
it may be
difficult to
get the
information we
need in order
to do this
well, and that
some
coordination
between groups
may help fill
this gap. We
also
anticipate
that rumors
and
misinformation
may become an
issue, as
different
delegates may
hear different
things, etc.
In
anticipation
of this, we
want to
propose a
group call for
next week.
This will be
open to any
civil society
groups
planning to
report on
WCIT, either
from Dubai or
from outside
the UAE. Given
the size of
these lists, I
am setting an
arbitrary
(though early,
which
generally
seems best)
time and date
for the call.
Hope that
plenty of
folks can join
-- we'll take
and circulate
good notes for
those who
can't make it.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
