recently informed about the process for the distribution of overpasses for the
High Level Panel in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:State w:st="on">Tunis</st1:State></st1:place>
and for the Plenary meetings. Overpasses are needed only for the HLP and
Plenary meetings, in which space constraints impose some obvious limitations in
the number of persons allowed in the room. Only CS participants duly registered
to Tunis Summit and badged under an accredited CS entity are entitled to
request an overpass for those two meetings. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:

established a central on-line overpass request system available for all
caucuses/WG/families (<b><span style='font-weight:bold'><a
href="http://www.privaterra.org/~rguerra/wsis">www.privaterra.org/~rguerra/wsis</a></span></b>).
Each CS registered participant, who would like to request an overpass, will have
to fill in this form by 11 November 2005, indicating which Caucus/WG/families
(s)he belongs to/participates in. Each requester will receive a confirmation of
his/her request together with a registration number, and requests lists will be
compiled for each CS grouping. The electronically compiled lists will be sent
to all focal points. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
