[governance] Meeting with US gov

[William Drake]

Hello

I received a couple dozen replies expressing interest in this meeting, which the room is big enough to accommodate.  So a general announcement in reply: please come to room G. at 18:10.  I'm not sure how long we will have.  The Gala Reception begins at 19:00 at the Buta Palace which appears to be near the expo center but I assume they will still want to bus us.  I've written to the secretariat and host asking how late the buses will be running between the two spots.  In the worst case scenario, there are a lot of taxis around and the ride should be short and cheap, especially if people are sharing the ride.

I imagine the main focus of discussion will be the WCIT, but if CS folks have other issues they want to bring up, fine.

Best

Bill

Secretary of Commerce), Fiona Alexander (head of international at NTIA), Terry Kramer (US Ambassaor to WCIT), and Manu Bhardwaj (Dept. of State).  This will be 18:00 tomorrow, Tuesday at the IGF site.  It looks like the room they've given us is big enough to accommodate more CS people, so if anyone would like to join, please contact me off list.
