Though WSIS is formally concluded, follow-up activities continue to keep
some of us busy (Global Alliance, Internet Governance Forum, etc.)
We should eventually have a formal discussion of what to do with the "Asia
Pacific NGO Coordinating Committee on WSIS" (i.e., this group), and how do
we repurpose it (as well as this mailing list) for challenges ahead...
Any initial thoughts?
