Hi all, 

Some have written to me with interest in the 2016 World Social Forum. At the
2015 Forum in Tunis, a new initiative was begun around an Internet Social
Forum. It might convene again in Montreal, so this might be of interest to
the AOIR community. Here¹s the main website for that:
http://www.internetsocialforum.net/?q=Home and here¹s the mailing list if
you wish to subscribe: http://internetsocialforum.net/Join_ISF. Below I¹ve
clipped a message recently posted to that list.

Best,
Becky Lentz
McGill University
