[governance] URGENT: CS Delegates at Istanbul IGF 'High Level Meeting'

[Mawaki Chango]

Hi all,

I'm getting back to this now and I believe Anriette must have forwarded
names about an hour ago to whomever is concerned. I seem to remember
Deirdre has already secured her attendance at the Istanbul IGF so she has
no choice but to represent us wherever needed there :)

If my name has been added to the slate, I'm glad to accept that, post hoc,
and do my job as co-co whenever and wherever required. Just note that at
this point I have not secured funding for my participation yet. So while I
am not sure when they will render their final decision pn this slate, I do
hope they will give priority to De in the final selection (as it would be
difficult to understand why they wouldn't include at least one of the two
cocos, both of whom are put forward as the only direct nominees from IGC.)
In any case, if I were to be the one selected and the only one from IGC
names, I hope it will be possible to transfer my selection to De if
eventually I cannot attend.

Thank you all,

Mawaki
