Thanks, Nico! I will wait for initial contributions from list members, I
guess I intervened too much already :-) Just reminding everyone deadline
for a workshop proposal é June 6.
And sorry for the duplicate message.
fraternal regards

If agreed, I guess we need volunteers to do the

proposal. Deadline (MAG does not plan to extend it): June 6th, 2016.

If the community decides to do it, I think APC (Mike?), Nupef and CGI.br
could be listed as co-organizers or supporters, as you wish. I guess it
would be ideal if the leading organizer (for the purpose of the
application at least) were Rhizomatica, since it is Mexico-based and
very successful on the theme. Does not imply funding of course, but at
least to comply with the formality of quoting organizations' involvement
to strengthen the proposal.
I agree it would be important to hold a workshop during the next IGF.
It's the first IGF edition since we started with the DC3.
Maybe after this we can decide if a BPF makes sense for the future or not.
Do we already know whom of us will be traveling to Mexico for the IGF?
We also need to assess what are the travel funding possibilities we
have. In our case (AlterMundi), we are willing to participate but we'll
need to cover the airfare somehow.
Afonso, I've started a PAD so we can write collectively there:
https://pad.codigosur.org/IGF2016_DC3-workshop
I've pasted the proposal you sent so we can use it as a reference and
template.
Regarding Rhizomatica, I think they haven't subscribed to this list...
Or at least I don't recognize their e-mail addresses.
If you wish to invite them to do so, please go ahead!
Cheers,
Nico
