<p dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I expect that the meeting would allow remote participation. Even though I would have also appreciated support for ccwg-participants, I think it's important to note that this is not a new thing as all CCWG meeting in the past has happened in this way. I think it's just economically reasonable enough to restrict the funding in such a manner.</p>
<p dir="ltr">It is my hope that the Co-Chairs will (as usual) ensure to treat remote and physical participants equally as it concerns participation.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Regards</p>

Kindly excuse brevity and typos.</p>

To be honest its disappointing to see that stakeholders who have been heavily involved in the process to date may not be given to opportunity to attend in person.
<div>Given the importance of this event and some statements that had been made around active participants being offered the opportunity to have a seat at the physical table its unfortunate that this hasn’t been reflected in the outcome of the planning
for the meeting.</div>
