<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Thanks Walid for your hard work on this.<br><br></div><div>I agree with Ed's point. Not only some parts of the world have Google censored but Google drive requires good Internet bandwidth in order to work. Which so many African countries doesn't have.<br><br></div><div>Some thoughts:</div>- What are your comments on '<i>showing the name</i>' vs '<i>not showing the name</i>'. Does this have any relevance? I have been thinking on that since I even don't remember whether I mentionned my name or I chose to stay anonymus when filling the survey. Reason is I found it not relevant for me. <br><br>- Why only veterans chose to mention the name? This can be another subject of study withing the constituency.<br><br></div>- I do agree with the fact that sending an individualised invitation is the best option because sometimes, you don't go through the email trends because you are less connected or spend less time on "personal" emails (when this applies). So, for really important messages, better to think twice on the form to be used.<br><div><br>I would love to have your thoughts.<br><br></div><div>Thanks,<br></div><div>A<br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>------------------------<br>*<b>Arsène Tungali</b>*<br></div>Co-founder & Executive Director, <i><a href="http://www.rudiinternational.org" target="_blank">Rudi international</a><br></i></div><div>Founder & Director, <i><a href="http://www.mabingwa-forum.com" target="_blank">Mabingwa Forum</a></i><br></div><div>Tel: +243993810967<i><br></i></div><div><u>Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo</u><i><br><br></i></div><div>Internet Governance<font face="monospace,monospace">- </font><a href="http://tungali.blogspot.com" target="_blank">Blogger</a>- Child Online Protection -<br><a href="https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2014-07-18-en" target="_blank">ICANN Fellow</a>- ISOC Member.<i><br>Join us for the <a href="http://mabingwa-forum.com/mabingwa-2014/registration/" target="_blank">3rd edition of Mabingwa Forum</a>.<br><a href="http://rudiinternational.org/donations/french/" target="_blank"> Sponsor a kid</a> for school!

<br>
The results seem extremely interesting and I look forward to digesting the them in their entirety. Thank you so much for your hard work!<br>
<br>
A request: Is it possible to ensure that the results eventually become available on a non-Google platform? Some of our members live in countries where Google is heavily censored and they are unable to access Google docs and Google drive. Perhaps we can get it up on the NCUC website.<br>
<br>
Thanks for considering,<br>
<br>
Ed<br>
