Thanks for the information. Can we share our names who are participating the
PrepCom II ? Then, we can plan for a meeting during the prepcom and need to
fix agenda. <BR><BR>If we agree, I have a plan to invite practitioners
to demonstrate the Telecenter experiences working all over the world.
We also can bring the issue in the CS Plenary.<BR><BR>Let's keep
discussing.<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR><BR>Shahid Uddin Akbar<BR>Coordinator<BR>ICT
