I feel I need to say that I am supporting this draft because I believe it is
the possible consensus we are able to reach by the end of the present week.


But then I ned to ask: will the lively debate that is currently taking place
cease when we send our statement? I hope not, because the present statement
is definitely not an IGC position on EC. So the debate needs to continue,
both on what was called “core EC” and “broader conditions for EC”: how to
define it? do we need it? in which ares? how to implement it? If we don’t
have a proposal to put on the table and bargain, others will decide for us.


I believe we have plenty of great exchanges, concrete suggestions (on one
side and the other) and good starting point do advance to a more concrete
position in the near future. But we need to map what has been said about EC
so far, put them in a charter so we can visualize it.  Could the
coordinators help us do it? What would be the best way to proceed? Maybe it
is time for the wiki you guys mentioned?


Best,

Marilia


Ps:@Kati, regarding ACTA, not being aware of the intentions, this is how I
understood the paragraph, through literal reading.  I have gone through the
e-mails trying to find when the reference to ACTA was included, but was
unable to.
