Hi Avri
My apologies for my late response. Alexander Klimburg, whom I work with, is attending the London conference on invitation of Chatham House (which is resposible for the civil society engagement component of the conference). The focus was originally to be Foreign Secretary Haguge's 7 principles on cybersecurity, mentioned at the Munich security conference. Alexander thinks this is going to be particulary interesting as one or even two of Hague's principles were directly related to freedom of access to the Internet, which was clearly interpreted differently in the aftermath of the England riots (much to Russia's and China's glee). In any case, the expectations at the moment are not very high.
Alexander says he has a lot of regard for the discussion on this forum, and if there is interest on this thread he could write a very short report on the conference, albeit from a "national cybersecurity" point of view. He does say, however, not to expect too much - both from the conference itself as well as his report - there might not be very much worthwhile to report on.
Best regards from Vienna,
Philipp

I apologize for sending out the wrong link at first.
I had heard about the Chatham House event sitting in a conference meeting, was horrified and without having the correct information wanted to make a wider group of people aware - since the time is so short. And what I did was confused things.
but at least the issue is now on the table. And fortunately there were people to correct it.
Thanks to Wolfgang and Ben for correcting my erroneous sky is falling message. I still think it may be falling, but not from the direction I was pointing.
So, is there any official information on this event other than the Register articles? Is anyone on this list participating who can give more information?
It does appear that they are doing a pretty good job of keeping this thing secret. Why is that?

Ps.
One useful piece of info in the Register article:

We should be ready to comment on the info that comes out of this event. Quickly and loudly.
