<tt style="word-wrap:break-word"><div>Hi there,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For the past two years, the IGC has been developping and submiting</div>
<div>workshop proposals for the IGF. Though all details about when and</div>
<div>where the IGF will take place, the deadline for workshop submission is</div>
<div>end of this month in basically 10 days. Am I the only one who finds</div>
<div>this odd?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Are we able to put together a drafting team that can work on an</div>
<div>initial draft? If you are interested, please state so on the list or</div>
<div>to me privately and I will be happy to coordinate. If by tomorrow no</div>
<div>one has reached out, I will consider that there is no interest.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards,</div>
<div>Arsene</div>
