[governance] What do you guys want in a IGF website?

[Lee W McKnight]

it should be easy for different linguistic communities, if they so chose, to build and maintain their own versions, with a 'click here' button at the top for Chinese or Spanish or whatever

Hello

Sivasubramanian's proposals are exhaustive.
And I'll add that we include a "Quote of the Day" in which the forum
administrators highlight a landmark statement made by a participant of
the Forum during the a day. This alone can incite more visits to the
site as well.
