Looks like we agree on having a privacy panel at the Citizens' Summit like
this:
> something more fundamental, looking
> way beyond the WSIS and discussing general privacy threats and 
> opportunities in the global information society.

Can I ask for ideas about:
- a nice catchy title for the panel (will be needed soon!)
- what the issues should be
- who can / should speak there

The panel will take place sometime on the 17th November. Exact timing and
location are at the discretion of the organizing committee.

Simon Davies from Privacy International is more or less confirmed as a
speaker here (if this does not overlap with his speaking slot at the
official summit). Whom else should we put on the panel? I am more than
happy to moderate.

 From the privacy activists / expert I know are going to be in Tunis, I
would also suggest Cedric Laurant (EPIC), Bruce Schneier (Counterpane),
Sjoera Nas (European Digital Rights).

--> Anybody else? Somebody from the South and more women would be good.

I am not sure about interpretation there, but will ask.

Best, Ralf
