Dear all, first of all let me wish you a happy and peaceful new year, I guess it is not too late to do so. 

Congratulations for this website, it is really enjoyable to see how SEEDIG is evolving, I am sure these efforts will lead to a successful 2nd edition in Belgrade. 

I have two comments:

1. I would like to share some thoughts we had when we introduced the online evaluation system back in 2014. The first tool was programmed by young Dutch people and it was agreed that we invite the community to express support for a proposal, but do not introduce a dislike option. We found it might be discouraging for the submitter and can lead to tensions, even if you not include the name of the submitter. We also learned in the process that the word "voting", leads the community to take the results too literally when interpreting the results. This means they expected that the one with the highest rank becomes the most prominent session and so on. We tried to make it always clear that the online review is "only" an additional tool to gain feedback from the community besides the planning meeting, but still it is misunderstood by some and we keep on explain it ... something to consider for the test phase.

2. I would like to encourage you to highlight a bit more SEEDIG as an independent initiative being part of a global process. The linkage between SEEDIG and EuroDIG was very well received during the IGF in Joao Pessoa and I would like to build upon that. By underlining for instance the alignment of the processes, the joint call for proposals and the way results of SEEDIG should feed into EuroDIG (and thereafter into the IGF) we could set some good practises for other regions and I am confident that this will strengthen the global IG process.

During the planning meeting on 26. January in Brussels we should come up with some concrete ideas on how to include SEEDIG results in EuroDIG meaningful and then deliver the message to the global IGF. Looking forward to your input here!

Best Sandra

please note that likes and dislikes are part of a testing exercise for
next year’s event. Because of the short time-frame, online evaluation is
not planned for this year, but this is something we will improve for
next year.
