The Dynamic Working Coalition for Internet Governance Mapping, of which
I am a part, is about to launch a survey of civil society organisations
to ascertain their interest in participating in bodies such as the CSTD
that are currently closed to them.  The outcome of this survey will be
able to be used as an input for the CSTD Secretariat's list.  Is there a
deadline for the preparation of the list?
