Hi all,
I have resigned too and made this known around the time Sha announced 
the last extension of the MAG.

>> Sorry if I missed anyone in cutting and pasting from the IGF site.   It's a fair bet that not all of the above will be in attendance.  It would be helpful to know who from the current MAG will be here.  And on the assumption that we will not be fully represented, it might be sensible to ask the chair to allow observers to participate rather than sitting silently.  Or if he thinks that'd be inappropriate, for CS to be able to designate temporary alternates for its missing MAG members.

The other question is: Will Sha Zukang make this decision or will he leave this in the hands of the next Under Secretary Generel for Social and Economic Affairs. His terms ends in June 2012 and it is unclear whether he will continue. His relationship with Ban Kin Moon is not really a friendly one and after BKM was reelected as SG he will have his own ideas for his deputies. What does it mean? Be prepared for a continuation of an unclear situation which is not so bad (as long as the key players in the MAG drive the process) and it will strengthen the position of Chengetai (which is very good) .
