Congratulations to the organizing committee of the IGF 2011 in Nairobi, the Kenyan government specifically. We have a wonderful, full of friendliness and good working atmosphere. I wish to express my admiration for the expertise of Alice who has demonstrated the ability of African women to be worthy of such high responsibility of international concern. I am still very happy with her appointment by consensus as Chairman of the Working Group for AFIGF.

Hi Listers,

Good to see many of you at the IGF.  A wonderful event, great show-case for Kenya.

Highest attended IGF, more than 2000 people through the UNON gates and more than 800 participated online.  More people from more countries.  Praise is universal: the best IGF yet.

Good media coverage and interesting to see two articles in the print edition of The Economist, one a Leader. One conference generating this kind of interest from The Economist is pretty special.

Praise for KIXP from the senior U.S. govt representative at the IGF <http://www.ntia.doc.gov/headlines/2011/opening-session-remarks-assistant-secretary-strickling-internet-governance-forum> Kenyan technical excellence yet again.

Thanks for a great couple of weeks.

Adam
