Agree, and I think that Jeremy and Joana and Wolfgang's suggestions are
not mutually exclusive.

We can send a letter, and ask member-states and sector members to also
raise this issue and make sure that our letter is discussed.

If not we should send a letter to like minded governments and to the ITU SG before February 6 and to push for a clear response to our request for equal participation in the WTPF, independent from national governmental delegations.
