<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">For instance, the MAG could
interact with the organizers of the 3 workshops on Access to identify
people who could speak / introduce discussion in the main session devoted
to access. The same could be done with the other sessions. More
transparency in the process, more involvement of those who actually cared
to organize workshops and better articulation between the bottom-up
initiated workshops and the more "official" main sessions.

Practical approach and I support it as process. <br><br>

<dd>Some time very soon someone will need to decide on speakers for the
<dd>IGF main sessions.<br>
<dd>The IGF in Rio starts in about 10 weeks, there is no money to bring
<dd>people (to the best of my knowledge.) There was general sense
from
<dd>the review of the Athens IGF that panels should be smaller, 4, 5 or
6
<dd>people, not the 12-16 we saw in Athens.<br>
<dd>The panels must be acceptable to all stakeholders, we should all feel
<dd>our views have an opportunity to be represented. Somehow these
4, 5
<dd>or 6 people should represent stakeholder, gender, geographic
<dd>diversity, and of course be expert on the issues.<br>
<dd>It would be very helpful to hear suggestions as to how to form these
<dd>panels. Perhaps we will be able to find panelists from among the
<dd>workshop participants? Or, can we --the caucus and others-- suggest
<dd>individuals, expert on Critical Internet Resources, Access,
Security,
<dd>Openness and Diversity, for these panels? <br>
<dd>Anyone suggested should already be planning to be in Rio.<br>
<dd>Ideas much appreciated.<br>
<dd>There is not time for a neat, open, democratic process. Time ran out
<dd>with the delay in renewing the MAG's membership. And I don't
know
<dd>how the advisory group's discussions on speaker selection will pan
<dd>out over the next two days. So if we make suggestions I can't
make
<dd>any promise they'll be accepted. But we can try, and apologies
in
<dd>advance if the suggestions can't be taken up.<br>
<dd>Thanks,<br>
<dd>Adam<br>
