Holly, I agree (and I should get used to typing AAP rather than AP region.)

I wasn't suggesting we all need to start asking 
for flights to Dubai, remote access would be

Nick, I know of a few civil society organizations 
from the Western Asia region active in the IGF, 
they might be interested.

Best,

Adam
