[governance] Sad news re Ronald Koven

[Meryem Marzouki]

Very sad indeed to learn that Ronnie passed away. I met him during WSIS early preparation days, where he was very active with the media caucus. We, in the human rights caucus, fought many battles jointly with Ronnie. We had different views, too, on some issues, but discussions with Ronnie were always very friendly, and it was always a pleasure to see him at IGFs as well as different Internet and Internet governance related meetings.
Yes, he will be missed.
