<p>One of our members from National Capital Freenet -- Andrew
Marty Asare will be speaking remotely about some work he and NCF
are doing on the ground to get people connected. I am also on
that panel. I am wondering if any of you have examples I can use
about how you are working with government programs to fill the
connectivity gap -- and how that is working out -- or not. This
is about different approaches -- and I am sure some of you have
some examples to offer.</p>
<p>Many thanks</p>
