thanks for the above.

while i was deemd coordinator for processs only, planning a meeting  
seems somewhat like a process, so i am definitely willing to help.

I think the suggestions you make are good.  Adam and Jeanette are not  
only past coordinators, but are both on the MAG.  and I am willing to  
give an update on the charter and where we are at the moment.

It would also be good to see us go a little way into substance.

some possiblities,

- a panel of the CS MAGites addressing issues about the IGF: why it  
is organized the way it is and what they expect to come out of it.

- a moderated discussion on what the attendees expect to come out of it

- a sequence of short (5 min) presentations on directions the IGC  
could take over the next year.

- i am sure there are other ideas

I am assuming that we are going for a 90 minute slot.  If so,

Then I would recommend dedicating no more the 30 minutes to the WSIS  
review and Charter etc, leaving an hour for 1 or 2 other discussions  
of 30 minutes each.
