Hi Anja, the minutes of the MAG meeting will probably be released on 
Monday. These will give details about the main sessions and sub-themes. 
The thematic structure will largely reflect that of the past year with 
the WSIS principles session being replaced by an Internet governance for 
development (IG4D)session. All of this will be preliminary as the UN SG 
needs to give his consent.

The May meeting (10/11) will consist of two days of open consultation to 
prepare the program for the next IGF and a one day closed meeting for 
the MAG to consider its own future - should there be one.
