thanks, I was going to propose everyone join an IGF accountability
project, and we find funding for it. I think government could be a
good target for funds for that....or business. Happy to pass the
hat. We do need it, but the IGF is at too immature a maturity level
at the moment....needs a longer mandate and stable funding to get to
the next level<br>
Cheers, Stephanie<br>

Split the difference.
Everyone agrees/calls for a ten year planning horizon for UN participation in IGF;
coupled with a call for greater multistakeholder participation in the -annual - review process for IGF accountability and transparency reasons.
Everyone's a winner.

I will have to be the one to provide that "almost" to that unanimity.
Speaking for myself, I do not support making the IGF a permanent body.
The IGF has to be relevant and has to deliver results, and we should push for
accountability of the IGF. Making it permanent isn't really going to help
accountability of the IGF (just as having the IANA contract be renewable has
helped keep ICANN more accountable so far, though the analogy is not perfect).
I would support making the evaluation process (for renewal of the IGF's term)
more participative and transparent and, yes, more "multistakeholder".
