[IGFmaglist] 2014 Interim Chair Selection

[Patrick Ryan]

Chengetai,

Thank you for sending this over.  It is indeed a tight timeframe (four
days) to do this, but happy to help with other MAG colleagues.  Please
note, however, that the business representation of MAG is in a little bit
of flux because of Ayesha's departure from ICC, although there is a BASIS
call on calendar tomorrow and we'll see if we can add this to the agenda.

I did not recall this occurring last year (possibly because of the late
appointments of MAG members). Because of that (and this year's change) we
may have as many as 50% rotation on the MAG.  So If there's anything that
you could send over on background that could be helpful.

Cheers,

Patrick
