IXP Durban Agenda

[Michuki Mwangi]

Dear all,

Please find the draft agenda for the IXP session in Durban on the 28th
September starting from 1400hrs.

We have an opportunity for Country updates and require volunteers from
their respective countries to give a 5 minute update. It need not be a
formal presentation. Just a mention on the progress made in the last 12
months would be adequate.

Also, i wouldnt mind someone to help with the moderation of some of the
sessions.

Lastly, we would not mind additions to the agenda in favor of more
pertinent topics.

Thanks.
