Good catch! Two or three people I wish were in India for this – and are there any IAPP regulars from India at all?

My one and only (slightly self-interested) recommendation is that you also not forget the lawyers ... PbD is a big deal (or is developing into one), and one of the hallmarks for successful implementation is including all the diverse groups together to develop best privacy practices and implement effective technological steps from the ground up. When I was at the most recent IAPP event here in D.C., there was much buzz about PbD concepts. A great resource if you haven't seen it yet, is available at the Office of Information & Privacy Commissioner of Ontario's website: http://www.ipc.on.ca/english/Privacy/Privacy-by-design/ Incidentally, Dr. Cavoukian knows her stuff, and is a blast to listen to!

Before the mighty brains get distracted by the India-Pakistan match and its aftermaths, here is a quick request for help. One of the projects that we at the Centre for Internet and Society are engaged in right now, is trying to conceptualise and understand how Privacy is shaped in India, at the intersections of law, technology and cultural practices. We are planning to have a small open space on the 16th of April, titled 'Privacy, by design" to look at how the technology actors in the city understand questions of privacy online. We are hoping to bring together coders, developers, entrepreneurs, technology researchers and users in an Open Space to see how we understand Privacy across a range of internet practices like social networking systems, e-government projects, communication and information transfer, surveillance, hacking etc. We have a small list of people that we are inviting and also making an open call (I can send the poster for that to whoever is interested) but I was also wondering if you know people who would be interested in such a discussion. If somebody comes to your mind, can you please connect me with them, or give me their contact information (with their consent, naturally) so that I can start a conversation with them? Thanks a lot Nishant -- Nishant Shah Doctoral Candidate, CSCS, Bangalore. Director (Research), Centre for Internet and Society,( www.cis-india.org ) Asia Awards Fellow, 2008-09 # 00-91-9740074884
