Luca,

I've been contacted by Rogelio Lopez from Access Now, asking if I'd like
to participate in this event.

I don't know much about it bit it looks interesting from what I saw on
the website. I asked him if there's travel funding available and he said
he'd check...
He asked me to send a "tech demos" or "interactive workshop" proposal,
but I like your proposal to present the Coalition perspective in this
event...

So, as long as there's funding available to travel, through Access or
otherwise, I would be glad to take part.

Cheers!
Nico

PS: When will you be sending the proposal?
