>About the 2006 WRDL:
>The report will be based on the results of a survey distributed to
>government leaders from around the world. The scope of the survey requires
>the respondent to have a familiarity with 1) the Digital Divide and issues
>stemming from it in a given country and 2) government policies and
>programs created to bridge the Divide. Though time required to answer the
>survey may vary, many respondents will need approximately 30 minutes to
>complete it. If you agree to participate, the survey will be distributed
>electronically to this e-mail address some time in June 2006. Your contact
>information will not be used for any other purposes apart from those
>intended for the production and receipt of this report.
>
>***Note: If you feel there are other officials or representatives of your
>country that are also qualified to respond to this survey, please forward
>the survey URL to them so that we may obtain responses from multiple
>participants from your country to increase validity of the survey results.
>(Also, any encouragement you provide for participating is greatly
>appreciated.).
