<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Thanks
Robert for this useful complementary information. I naively thaught to
eventually get this accreditation for attending the upcoming meetings...<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>I
completely support your opinion on CS participation in meetings that are in
diret connection with WSIS follow-up. As far as I know, even the calamitous
Tunis Summit didn't exlude its follow-up process to be a multistakeholder
process. Which in my understanding means that CS has the same rights as have
its other partners.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Therefore
I also ask <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">CONGO</st1:place></st1:country-region>
to be our voice in this issue and hope they'll succeed, at least for the
february "IGF" meeting .<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

organizations seem to be allowed to participate in a meeting that is the result
of WSIS. If anything BOTH ECOSOC and organizations that were accredited in the
WSIS process should be allowed in. I would hope that groups such as <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">CONGO</st1:place></st1:country-region> and
others will lobby hard for the meeting to be reflective of the WSIS principles
of inclusion - and not exclusion. <br>
