CORRECTION: The list got created under irtf.org, i.e.:

Subscribe at https://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/ericas and email the list at 
ericas(_at_)irtf(_dot_)org.

(The list creation message I got from the system said it was created under both 
the IETF and IRTF domains, but apparently not.)

Hi,

I've been talking to a few folks about whether there would be interest and 
energy for a new IRTF RG focusing on - for the lack of a better term - 
"Internet challenges and solutions for emerging regions." Basically, a forum 
where we can discuss the challenges the Internet is facing in those regions, 
and share experiences and proposals to successfully address some of those 
challenges.

I'd be thrilled to discuss this in more detail with interested folks. This 
list, however, is probably not the place for this. Contact me directly, and 
maybe I'll set up a separate list under irtf.org.

I head the secretariat create a discussion list for "Emerging Regions 
Internet Challenges And Solutions" aka ERICAS. Subscribe at 
https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ericas and email the list at 
ericas(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org.

Please feel free to invite everyone you feel should be involved in this 
discussion, IETF attendee or not!

Also, while I'll be on the list and at least initially act as administrator 
in terms of whitelisting posts, etc., I do believe strongly that in order for 
this discussion/effort to be useful, it needs to be owned by and run by a 
group of people from those emerging regions. So I encourage everyone to step 
up and actively shape the discussion!

Thanks,
Lars
