This is truly "Jicho Pevu", i think some answers to this questions are
very much in order as we celebrate Easter, can someone provide us with
a list of all agencies involved in ICTs and ICT4D so that we can do
some tooth comb analysis, i saw a  post from Paul on what the board
has achieved early this year, that was very much in order we need
something from NCS as well plus any other agencies.

Regards
