        <div>These important points remind me that it may be useful to
          ensure we have a process/system for sharing all important
          information (are people comfortable that just posting to the
          list is the best way?); and it also reminds me that it would
          bve most useful to know who plans on attending which upcoming
          meetings -- I'm thinking particularly about the Paris WSIS+10,
          but it would be great to have a list for all major meetings. 
          Some of us have to decide where to invest money for travel,
          and knowing who will attend may indicate particular gaps in CS
          presence, or meetings where we'll have a critical mass
          attending who can discuss broader policy issues.</div>

    <div class="AppleOriginalContents">Actually I put together a system

    Anyone who registers can list a meeting there and say whether they
    are attending, and can post a short report there.  It supports
    multiple reports, too, in the case that more than one delegation is
    attending.  The main purpose is to identify where there are gaps -
    important meetings that nobody is covering.  But it only works if
    enough people use it, so please do.<br>
    <br>
    There is also a very nice (nicer than mine, which was done on the
    cheap) public calendar that American University has put up, but it
    only covers IP meetings, and it doesn't have as much functionality
    in terms of showing who is attending.  But anyway, it is useful for
    showing what is coming up:<br>

    <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://infojustice-calendar.org/">http://infojustice-calendar.org/</a><br>

    Both calendars have the ability to subscribe in your calendar
    software such as Lightning, iCal, Outlook, Google Calendar, etc.<br>
