[governance] Re: [igf_members] opening session civil society speaker

[Izumi AIZU]

Thank you Qusai for the suggestion.

I think it is important to show CS views in the opening session and
support Grace to both represent host country/continent and gender.

For closing, the substance will be more important than the person,
perhaps.

I think Jeremy and I and any others can make a team there during IGF
to prepare and discuss  what we are going to say at closing session,
of course with the list discussion here.

Then either Jeremy or myself or whoever else best fit can read that.
