[governance] IGC's nominations for speakers for Rio

[Parminder]

I am sure the caucus joins me in thanking and congratulating Michael
Gurstein, Avri Doria, Dan Krimm, David Goldstein and Norbert Bollow for
doing an excellent work after being called to this IGC duty with such a
short timeline to accomplish it.

 

I have hurriedly collected information about the recommended speakers that
was available and sent in the recommendations. If any recommended speaker
wants to change/ update information we can recompile the information and
send it once again to the IGF. 

 

And thank you Yehuda for the links. 

 

Parminder 

 

PS: We plan to be able to send names for the 'way forward' session by
tomorrow.
