A message from the editorial team of TheNegotiator
- the daily journal of the CTA seminar on trade
Brussels, 27 - 29 October 2002



We are writing to you because, in view of your subscription to
the CTA electronic forum on trade, or CTA's electronic
publications AgriTrade or Spore, we felt you will be interested
in the CTA seminar being held in Brussels in a few days from now
(see http://www.cta.int/ctaseminar2002/).

If you do not wish to receive the mailings which we plan to send
you on 27, 28 and 29 November, please follow the instructions at
the end of this letter.

This seminar is bringing together more than 100 specialists,
negotiators, advisors and support groups to discuss and draw up
strategies for effective ACP participation in multilateral trade
negotiations, and the role of information and communication
technologies.

The success of the seminar depends in part on inputs from all
stakeholders. Whilst all sectors and interests will be well
represented in the seminar, the organisers are also keen for
those stakeholders who cannot attend to make their opinions known
and to share their expertise in this domain. For this reason, a
preparatory electronic forum has been held between mid-September
and mid-November.

Moreover, during the meeting, we are publishing print and
Internet versions of a twice-daily newspaper, TheNegotiator,
which reports on the event in detail, including the inputs made
by stakeholders from a distance, by electronic means. This will
allow you to follow the event and comment on it, directly, as it
happens, and participate electronically. For example, if you
comment by email on the morning edition of TheNegotiator
(available online from midnight), this will be included in the
afternoon edition, and could thus be included in that afternoon's
discussions in workshops.

We therefore invite your participation. We shall send you twice-
daily summaries of the TheNegotiator as soon as they are written,
and before they have been printed for on-the-spot participants.
The complete edition will be available on PDF format on the CTA
Website at http://www.cta.int/ctaseminar2002/. If you wish to
receive the PDF format directly as it is published, please send a
blank email to join-negotiator-pdf@lists.cta.int.

We look forward to your participation. You should send your
contributions to: negotiator@lists.cta.int
