I totally support the proposal by Jane and the CS speaker Shirin Ebadi as well.<BR>
Is there any body on the list who would be opposed to our adding our support as a taskforce?<BR>
If i receive no negative comments in the next day, i will ask for our entity to be added to the list of supporting groups ...<BR>

</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">For the past couple of days there has been strong activity on the various CS lists, trying to gather support for the nomination of Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi as key-note CS speaker.<BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana"> <BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">Many have expressed their support and Meyrem Marzouki has put together a list of supporting entities, including a large number of the CS working group and caucuses. I would therefore suggest that the Education and Academia Task Force do the same, if there is enough support of the idea.<BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Verdana"> <BR>
</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial">My organisation has already signed this petition, so I am only asking this because I think that we also as a group involved in WSIS, should support collective CS efforts to have the speaker we wish for nominated.<BR>
