because so many of us were not happy to have yet another IGF happening<br>
in Europe.<br>
<br>
But the UNDESA and the IGF Secretariat mentioned that they are doing<br>
everything they can to ensure other countries are biding in but they<br>
only receive few interested countries.<br>
<br>
On a question I raised about the requirements, it was noted that there<br>
is a strong financial expectation from the host, which is supposed to<br>
cover ALL the expenses related to putting together an IGF. And this is<br>
between 2-3 millions USD (less, if the event is to be held at the UN<br>
office).<br>
<br>
So, a lot to say... But for now, people should get ready for Poland!<br>
