[IGFmaglist] Registration for the upcoming MAG and OC -- online participation as a 'special need'

[Ginger Paque]

Thanks, Chengetai. We appreciate your efforts to balance effective and
practical procedures with inclusion.

I do think it is important to recognise online participants, and include
these names in the participant list, because it helps us plan our
collaborative work.

Gracias!
