[Mmwg] With the elections over... can we get to thesubject at hand ?

[Luc Faubert]

Governments move in packs. I doubt any of them will accept to join unless they know that other govs will also be here.

We could improve our chances of success by individually lobbying specific governements to participate with a "promise" that there will be others, and when we get a few of them to agree, they could join together--which has to be really quick, as Milton has been stressing. Additionnally, those that join should ideally be from different "groups", not just the US, Canada, Australia, Japan, Singapore, et al. group.

Robert takes care of Canada.
Milton does the US.

I think we also need Iran, Brazil, Pakistan, China, the EU, an African country and ???

Who can take care of those?

I can try to get Argentina in through ISOC Argentina.
