[Euro-board] EURALO role at EuroDIG 09

[William Drake]

Hi Wolf,

To me, as described, the workshops in question appear to have little  
or nothing to do with ICANN or even with Internet governance more  
generally.  Which, given the important developments underway in the IG  
field, is arguably a pity.  In any event, it's not obvious to me what  
the connection to your Euralo function would be here.

Best,

Bill
