[governance] Call for hub registration IGF 2011 (reminder)

Thu Aug 11 16:49:52 EDT 2011

Dear Andrey,

The trainings on the remote participation platform will be scheduled for the
next 2 weeks to come; therefore, and in order to take part of these
trainings, it would be better if you can register your hub during the next
couple of days.

All the best,
Bernard.
