[WSIS CS-Plenary] What we need for PrepCom3 (was: Report: CS @ Intersessional)

[Ralf Bendrath]

Hi all, 

first, a big thanks for Karen to get this going.

> 4. Preparations for PrepCom III
> -------------------------------
> a) Coordination and Logistics
> 
> We discussed the need to work immediately on a coordination and logistics
> plan for PrepCom III. Louise Lassonde has asked that we submit at least a
> rough outline of our logistical needs this week. Ralf Bendrath has drafted
> a document outlining these needs, based on discussions at the end of
> PrepCom II and as a result of our experiences during the Intersessional.

This is part of a more comprehensive draft piece for our general
structure and coordination at PrepCom3 and the summit itself. See next
mail for everything.

Because we need to inform Louise by this week, I include this part
below. Please add anything you would like to get from the secretariat
until Wednesday night:

> end of  **Wednesday july 23rd** 

All the best, 

Ralf
