</div>We haven't really needed to, since the mailing list has been working for us (though last time, we did experiment with online polling software which seemed to work well). But the IGF won't even use its the open mailing list that it already has. I convinced the Secretariat to create this back in 2006 (<a href="http://intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/plenary_intgovforum.org" target="_blank">http://intgovforum.org/mailman/listinfo/plenary_intgovforum.org</a>), but it has never been promoted to IGF participants, so nobody knows about it or uses it.<br>
