[Paul Wilson]

Dear all,  (with apologies for any duplication)

You may know about ISIF, the Information Society R&D grants programme hosted by APNIC, with support from various agencies.  ISIF awards recognise relevant projects which show outstanding merit, and the deadline for nominations is approaching.  As you see, the award includes a travel grant to attend IGF in Bali.

Feel free to post a nomination, also to pass on this announcement, within the short time available!

All the best

Paul
