[governance] [DEADLINE] Call for Nominations - Internet Governance Caucus/Multi-Stake Holder Advisory Group (MAG).

[Robert Guerra]

Dear IGC  colleagues:

I'd like to remind all of you that the deadline is TODAY to be  
considered by the  Internet Governance Caucus nominating committee as  
a candidate to the IGF multi-stakeholder advisory committee.

As chair of the IGC nominating committee, I would like to encourage  
those who are active on this list to apply on or before end of day  
today (April 13th).  A good pool of candidates, one that is  
regionally, gender and linguistically balanced - in my view would be  
of great help for the nom-com.

I encourage participants on this list  to apply !

Details on the call that was issued on April 7th can be found below.

regards

Robert Guerra
IGF 08 Nomcom Chair
