[WSIS CS-Plenary] Speaker Nomination - John Perry Barlow

[Jean-Louis FULLSACK]

Sorry Robert
Who knows him and who has ever met/discussed with him among the CS participating to the WSIS ?
I don't like "parachuted speakers" and I guess many other CS activists won't either, especially during the very last period.

I'd like to put forward the name of John Parry Barlow as a possible speaker at the summit. 


He's let me know that he'll be at the Summit, and would be keen to speak  - that is, if the NGOs/CS would nominate him.


I've cc'd him on this message so that he can help answer any comments and/or questions people might have.


his bio is as follows:
