[NCSG-PC] Fwd: [council] Update: Optional Meeting with GAC on IGO CRP

Tue Jun 25 17:48:23 EEST 2019

Elsa, i think for now, let’s follow the conversation closely and use every opportunity to not miss any of these conversations.

As Rafik said yesterday, there is nothing we can do for now. But with this new agreement, let’s make sure we are part of the drafting team that will be tasked to scope this new WG and get our members ready to be represented there
