>> There has been some interesting discussion within the MAG members regarding the integration of the national and regional IGF Initiatives within the program in Bali.
>> 
>> Some interesting ideas have emerged during discussions yesterday and today, and as I am in the room and am not sure all of you who are not MAG members or not in the room are following, it seems useful to call a couple of things to your attention.
>> 
>> First, Paul Wilson and I volunteered to pull together a discusstion tomorrow a.m. /here in Geneva at the EBU in the main meeting room at 8:45 am. for 45 minutes to discuss this.
>> 
>> Second remote participation is available [thanks to the Secretariat!] at the same link as for the full meetings.
>> 
>> What I think we will discuss from what has discussed so far:
>> 
>> How can the national and regional IGF Initiatives participate -- e.g. workshops; a inter-regional/national Roundtable.  Separate sessions of a shorter time frame, e.g. one hour or even less; a day long dialogue on Day 0 or a 1/2 day  session on Day 0.  Or various approaches which combines some of these. Other ideas which emerge tomorrow. 
>> 
>> Paul Wilson and I volunteered to co facilitate.  
>> 
>> Please come if you are here in Geneva, or if not and can participate remotely, please do.
>> If you cannot participate and you are interested, I am happy to hear from you via email either to this full group of names, or to me at marilynscade at hotmail.com and include Paul Wilson, and I am sure we will ensure your thoughts are included in the discussion to the best of our ability. 
>> 
>> I spoke with Paul Wilson before sending this 'alert, and ask that he cross post to any other list that might have others on it, that I may have missed.  I think he has already posted to the MAG, however, I am not a MAG member, and many of you are not. 
>> 
>> I look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning and to joining Paul Wilson in co facilitation discussion of options.
