[At-Large] Inviting Indian public to New Delhi meeting

[Adam Peake]

Not easy to get general public to meetings held on week days, people 
work.  Think you have to be in the industry (in some way) to want to 
spend a week at ICANN even if it's in your home town. And it's a bit 
late for outreach to people from outside Delhi.

But I've written to Madan to see what he suggests, if he can write 
something up from the local IT media. blogs etc.

You could ask Ramaraj if he could get a note on the Sify home page 
(but that would be a bit like asking Vint to add a note about the LA 
meeting to google.com, but there might be local Delhi pages -- don't 
know how Sify is organized.)  Asking his advice would anyway make 
sense.  There seems to be an ISOC Delhi chapter.

Bit late to be thinking of this now.  Perhaps the EURALO could start 
planning some outreach for Paris?
