[governance] Reviving IGC: Merging Bestbits in, IGF Day zero event and other subjects

[ian.peter at ianpeter.com]

Bruna,

On a more substantive matter -

Can you also advise us on how progress is going as regards getting the 
IGC Coordinator elections (which were due last January) underway? On 
June 26 you advised the list that you. would be talking to Arsene and 
would get back to the list ASAP.  Do you have an update?

Ian Peter
