Hi - I agree with the idea of a joint statement making the IGF
permanent<br>
However, I would point out that yesterday at the Best Bits meeting
we agreed to make a statement saying more than just that the IGF
should be made permanent - we also were to preparea a statement on
other issues and a smaller group had started notes on these during
the meeting on the meeting etherpad
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://etherpad.mozilla.org/NnbQgXIv8Y">https://etherpad.mozilla.org/NnbQgXIv8Y</a> at lines 330-339 <br>
These still need more work - a small group volunteered to work on
developing these into a statement that would be sent to this list
for comment and a call for support (myself, Dixie, Jeremy, Carolina
- maybe one or two others?)<br>
I just want to make sure we do not lose sight of this <br>
thanks<br>
<br>
Joy<br>
