    <div class="QCMcontainer" style="font-family:Tahoma;font-size:16px;">Agreed
      that we all need to put our heads down and do our bits to push for
      rego.<br>
      <br>
      It should be easier this year because we are co-locating with
      EANOG and tzNOG. So across the 3 of us, we should be able to rally
      our delegates, but we need to go and chase them. In many cases,
      even individually.<br>
      <br>
      I am busy chasing speakers for the development of the agenda, so I
      won't have much time to chase registrations or other logistics. I
      will need the support of the rest of the OC to do that.<br>
      <br>
      Ultimately, folk won't come by themselves. We have to go make
      them.<br>

          <div>We have 4 weeks to the event.  What this means is that
            all parties, especially local partners have to NOW, really
            reach out to the community and get people to participate. So
            the push has to start now.<br>

          <div>I also understand from Noah that there are like 40 people
            (students) who would like to participate in the conference
            but is not able to pay for the participation fees.  We need
            to decide if we will provide fellowship to them.</div>
