<font face="Verdana">And of course the proposed statement is
employing a very one sided meaning and implication of enhanced
cooperation, not at all as it is meant in the Tunis Agenda....<br>
<br>
Enhanced cooperation in Tunis agenda is among governments to
enable them to fulfil their public policy roles, in consultation
with all stakeholders.... As all of the best democracies do or
should do (if anyone has any instance of any democracy going
beyond this, except referendums which I welcome, pl give an
example)<br>

You need to especially clarify what does participating in all
policy processes in "a full and equal manner" mean.<br>
<br>
This kind of stuff cannot be employed loosely... It must pass
the democracy text. Do you really mean that a google of ICC rep
at IG policy processes should have voting rights, as gov reps
are likely to have. Yes or No. <br>
<br>
Otherwise what does full and equal manner of participation
mean...<br>
<br>
Please clarify. <br>

having been able to follow the WTPF discussions in great
depth and also without following the discussion here
except recently I'm noting in the document continuing
reference to a "multistakeholder model"... and moreover
to "multistakeholder processes" etc. Can anyone point me
to a clear articulation of what is meant by the
"multistakeholder model". Further if we are to be
ascribing so fulsomely to the multistakeholder process
should we not also be asking for some rather clearer
articulation of the nature of the internal processes of
the various stakeholders whom we are accepting as peers
in these processes if only to understand the basis from
which they are making their interventions.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">A group of us are here in Geneva for
the WTPF, including Valeria from APC, Anja from Internet
Democracy Project, Emma and Matthew from CDT, Joana from
FGV, Deborah from Access, Lea and Gene from Global
Partners, Wolfgang, Avri, Bill Drake and I apologise if I
have forgotten any others. As you may have read elsewhere,
the draft opinions for the WTPF were adopted with almost
no changes, and a late proposed opinion by Brazil on
operationalising the role of governments in Internet
governance, was discussed but in the end not agreed, and
may go to the CWG-Internet for further action. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Today we will have the opportunity to
deliver a closing statement at the plenary. Because of
the need for this to respond to the event as it developed,
this has been written on the fly over lunchtime today
(with Matthew taking the lead), so I hope you will
understand the limitations that we are operating under
here. But if you are online now and would like a link to
view and edit the document, please email myself or Matthew

paste the text here simply because it is still changing as
we speak, and it would become inaccurate within just a few
