Dear Friends, <br><br>
To make communication and reporting on the 2nd WSIS Prepcom faster and
more up-to-date, CONGO has, in cooperation with UNjobs, brought out a new
online bulletin for civil society :
<a href="http://www.prepcom.net"><b>www.prepcom.net</a></b>. A link from
<a href="http://www.ngocongo.org/ngonew/wsis.htm">CONGO website, WSIS
page</a>, is also available. <br><br>
This will replace the CONGO newsletter "CONNEXION" during this
Prepcom. <br><br>
CONGO Members are encouraged to send articles about WSIS Prepcom 2 to
<a href="mailto:editor@prepcom.net">editor@prepcom.net</a> <br>
All remarks and contributions are welcome. <br><br>
All the best <br>
Kouraich Jaouahdou <br>
CONGO Communication Officer <br><br>
