Congrats, Cintra and all ISOC fellows.
Cintra, there may be other workshops who end up needing remote moderators
in the end. I am sure the secretariat would like to know of your
willingness. Why don't you drop them a note at igf @ unog.ch to let them
know, and see if you can .
still sign up as a resource person as well, in case there are panelists
with travel problems
As an RP supporter, I thank you for your offer--I think it is quite
possible someone will be glad to have your help.
Best,
Ginger
