[bestbits] Reminder to register for pre-IGF civil society meeting (very limited travel support)

[Jeremy Malcolm]

So far we have $1000 each from EFF, ICANN and ICANN NCUC but we are
trying to raise more, since that clearly isn't going to go very far. 
The more we raise, the more people can be supported.

There was a "subject to funding" checkbox in the registration form
Parminder which I guess you missed.  I will set it for you.
