 >[CSTD](1) a letter informing you about the next meeting of the group, 
 >scheduled to take place in Montreux, Switzerland from 25-26 February

Putting on my "travel agent" hat, be aware that Montreaux is some 80km 
from Geneva, about an hour by train.

 >[CSTD] With respect to the five representatives from intergovernmental 
 >organizations, requests have been received from ITU, UNDESA, UNESCO, 
 >UNDP, WIPO, UNECA, UNESCWA, and the Council of Europe.

It's useful to have this long-running issue clarified (ie this category 
is not "International Organisations", like ICANN).

 >[CSTD] I take this opportunity to inform you that we have received the

 >community.

It'll be interesting to see who has been nominated from all these 
groups, and how much overlap there is with the MAG, whose earlier work 
is to some extent being reviewed here.

I hope that we will be able to see rather more of this first draft than 
just the nine paragraph titles, before the meeting; if we are to 
comment.
