Hi Listers,

Good to see many of you at the IGF.  A wonderful event, great 
show-case for Kenya.

Highest attended IGF, more than 2000 people through the UNON gates 
and more than 800 participated online.  More people from more 
countries.  Praise is universal: the best IGF yet.

Good media coverage and interesting to see two articles in the print 
edition of The Economist, one a Leader. One conference generating 
this kind of interest from The Economist is pretty special.

Praise for KIXP from the senior U.S. govt representative at the IGF

Kenyan technical excellence yet again.

Thanks for a great couple of weeks.

Adam
