1.       Brief review of the last DC3 meeting in Guadalajara, at University of
Guadalajara, MX

- The meeting was divided in 4 segments: training, policy, technical and sustainability
       2.    Resources and material on the DC3 website
(www.comconnectivity.org<http://www.comconnectivity.org> )
                - The web page for resources and material on CNs need to be consolidated;
- Resources and Material will be classified according to their different type. E.g.
academic publications, short articles, video, etc;
                - For training material it may be necessary a separated web page;
- It was suggested to offer pages for efforts that want to give an overview of their
activities just to make more people aware of them.
                - A call for materials/resources will be launched on the DC3 list;
       3.   CNs events
- We need a an agenda of CNs events around the world, with tags or different colours
categorizing events with different natures (eg., trainings, multistakeholder workshops,
policy conferences, civil society meetings)
- Upcoming meeting and events:

if DC3 an APC can combine efforts.  http://www.giswatch.org/
