[IGFmaglist] Fwd: IMPORTANT for MAG Review: Proposed Poll to be launched during IGF

[Sumon Ahmed Sabir]

Dear Chair,

I also support this poll to be lunched in IGF Meeting.

Along with that it would be good if we could arrange this poll in some non
IGF meetings like ICANN meetings, RIR meetings or any other community
meetings. So that we can get a more clear view on different stake holders
perception on IGF agendas.

best regards,

Sumon Ahmed Sabir
