Dear all,
We have been asked to support #Internet4all campaign as explained
below. NCSG Executive Committee wants to hear members' opinions,
should we sign it as NCSG or not. Whether you think we should or not,
feel free to simply indicate your preference ("yes", "no", "+1", "-1")
or explain it more verbosely, as you like.
In any event our members can sign it individually if they so
choose.
If you have any questions about it, Farell Folly is on this
list and should be able to answer them better than I can.
Thank you,
Tapani Tarvainen
