> Date: Tuesday, 6 November 2012 13:08
> To: "<bestbits at lists.igcaucus.org> Bits" <bestbits at lists.igcaucus.org>
> Subject: Best Bits press conference, Thursday at 2pm
>
> The Best Bits press conference will be held at 2pm on Thursday 8 November in
> the press room.  All of you are welcome to attend.  If you would like to be
> available for Q&A, please reply to the group so that we can sort that out
> ahead of time.
>
> The conference will be short (we will try to keep to 10 minutes).  I suggest
> the following agenda:
>
> 1. Explain in 30 seconds our motivation for coming together at Best Bits.
> 2. Present our WCIT statement (Andrew, would it be possible for you to print
> a few copies?).
> 3. Present our single sentence about the IGF-level statement on Internet
> governance.
> 4. Possibly - mention our objection to the handling of the ICT Watch
> censorship postcards.
>
> Item 4 above is up for discussion - do we, as a group, feel that censorship
> at the IGF is important enough to raise with the press?
>
> There are no official daily press conferences planned, therefore we will
> have to do our own work to attract journalists to attend.  I am in touch
> with the European Union's press officer about this, but I could use some
> more help please.  If any of you have press contacts, please inform them of
> our plans.
>
> We will also need a press release at the event, that any journos who attend
> can use as boilerplate for their report - does someone want to work on this?
> If not I will do so.  We will have to choose one of the above items to focus
> on in the press release, as journalists won't report on more than one thing
> per press conference.
>
> If you plan to be there, whether or not you will be on the panel, please
> reply to me off list.  Thanks!
