[Privsec] Simon Davies not coming - new speaker for high-level roundtable needed

[Ralf Bendrath]

Hi all,

unfortunately, Simon Davies from Privacy International, who was accepted 
as our speaker at one of the summit high-level roundtables, can not come 
to Tunis. Don't ask me why - there is nothing we can do about it.

I just talked to Philippe Dam from CONGO:

We might be able to nominate somebody else. This person should be very 
high-level in his or her organization, a well-known expert etc blah blah blah.

--> Who could do this? We have to submit a name as soon as possible. The 
roundtable is around 11-13 on Thursday, and the final decision is made by 
ITU chief Utsumi.

Rikke, Tarpani, Robert, Vittorio or myself can't speak there, as we are 
accredited under the government delegations and the ITU wants official 
civil society. We spoke with Gus Hosein from PI, but he has visa problems 
and is not sure if he will make it.
