[governance] IGF will take place in Paris in 2018

[Arsène Tungali (via governance Mailing List)]

at least some good updates here, thanks, everyone.

And having Macron publicly announce this, it gives more credit to this
edition somehow. In the article from Le Figaro shared here, Paris is
not confirmed as the host city as per de IGF Secretariat quote. They
said Paris looks like a serious host but that the host city will soon
be revealed.

Whenever the official announcement will be sent out, then we will be
able to confirm it. And if the MAG is not yet informed, I wonder what
that actually means.
