Kieren McCarthy and I have put together a Drupal site for the IGF which will provide a semi-official site for remote participants to involve themselves in the activities of the Internet Governance Forum through chat, polls, blogs and discussion boards.

On the one hand I think it is great that the Secretariat seem to be willing to allow the community to pitch in to build participation fora for the IGF that otherwise probably wouldn't exist. On the other hand I find it slightly scary that it should be entrusted to a freelance IT journalist and an IT lawyer (well, student now).

On another note, Drupal is really impressive. I've been using WebGUI before, because I'm a Perl person rather than a PHP person, but Drupal seems much more logical and easy to administer, if a little less customisable out of the box.
