At the WTDC the discussion and last minute wrangling was down to the last minute and so people cannot make changes and decisions about the IGF now and will likely pass on it. It will likely be people able to change their plans at the last minute but not necessarily for civil society and NGOs. If the dates stays the same than this could be very damaging to the IGF and its need for funding and relevance
