Dear Markus,

The Latin-American and Caribbean Civil Society Caucus on the WSIS
process, through its electronic forum "alc-cmsi", has carried out a
nomination process for the Multistakeholder Advisory Group (MAG) which
culminated with a secure online voting process carried out between March
28 and April 02. I had the honor to be the facilitator of the process
(reason why I did not participate as candidate).

The electoral college included 65 people representing nearly all civil
society organizations in the region regularly involved with the WSIS
process, most of them since the beginning of it.

It was the LA&C caucus' decision to send the secretariat the list of the
first five of the names chosen in that electoral process, which I
include below, in decreasing order of voters' preferences:

Valeria Betancourt (Ecuador) - valeriab at apc.org
Raul Echeberría (Uruguay) - raul at lacnic.net
Graciela Selaimen (Brazil) - graciela at rits.org.br
Patrick Attié (Haiti) - patrick.attie at esih.edu
Carlos Affonso Pereira de Souza (Brazil) - caffsouza at gmail.com

The LA&C caucus has asked me to forward this message to the Civil
Society Internet Governance Caucus (CSIGC) as well, to help their
nominating committee in drafting their global list, and trusts the
wishes of the LA&C caucus will be taken into account in the final choice
of civil society representatives.

Fraternal regards
