color:#1F497D'>That is definitely a most important point. The way I think
funding works best is to have a project that is important to us, and then find
a funding source to support it, rather than find a funding opportunity and then
create a project to access the funds. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

have missed out on quite a few emails owing to work pressures (end of semester
projects and exams) , and I know that some ideas were tossed around before and during

Not necessarily. The Internet Governance Caucus is already an<br>
organization by itself. What needs to be done, if it suits the IGC, is<br>
to formalize the Caucus as a Civil Society Organization which may be<br>
by registering the IGC as an International non-profit organization or<br>
a Society. But does it suit the IGC to go through these steps?<o:p></o:p></p>

My sense is no.<br>
<br>
What are the projects that we would accomplish with funding? <o:p></o:p></p>
