<p dir="ltr">Honestly if you are saying this then I think we may have missed the advantage that NETMundial brought.</p>
<p dir="ltr">For me I think NETMundial was an avenue where respective stakeholder made their concern known and also got an almost immediate response from the other stakeholder that has different view of the same subject. You cannot over emphasis benefits of such an environment; especially towards creating a widely acceptable language on various topics of discussion. I feel this was what that section was trying to address and I really don't view it as marketing words and even if they were marketing I think it will be towards getting other stakeholders to voice out their concerns with the aim of producing a roughly and widely acceptable statement.<br>
The Era of us writing a long statement to government about our concern and receiving a short response of "... we will discuss this" OR "... we will work on it" is over! We need 2-way communication on real-time basis in other to achieve actionable results!</p>
<p dir="ltr">My few cents.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Cheers!</p>

It grow from 1 page to almost 2. I do feel we have reached a point where the text is closed and round. So I write to you to ask you consider signing it. It bring reflections on the NetMundial results. I hope this is more representative of how many of us feel. And I do think it is a good closure step. It was in a google document until recently, but Jeremy did the favor to put it online, behind a password. </font></div>
