<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">This is where we stand on our workshop
proposals. </span></font></p><span class="q">

</span><p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">The call is open for volunteers to
convene and join this group. As Adam and others said this should be a very useful
exercise of evaluating the IGF at the mid-point of its (expectedly, initial) 5
year life. We will need to build on the work that got done for this workshop last
year. As you know, we did hold a workshop in the same topic last year and the
proposal is that we make this a regular IGF feature. </span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Significantly, the IGF page listing
the topic under which workshop proposals (<a href="http://www.intgovforum.org/workshop_info.htm" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.intgovforum.org/workshop_info.htm</a>
) may be given says; "Workshops on other issues relating to Internet
governance and the mandate of the IGF are also welcome." We seem to be
already in. I think this is an important impact of IGC's first ever
workshop on this topic last year, that it is now a part of the official list of
themes for workshops. </span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">A WG convened by Bret is developing
this proposal. </span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">As proposed earlier, in this slot it
will be useful to put in the IGP workshop proposal on 'The Future of
ICANN: After the JPA, What?' Please see Milton's email of the 17<sup>th</sup>
on this. Any IGC member who wishes to work with IGP group to develop/ influence
this workshop proposal may write to Milton (and/or me), and can become a part
of a WG.</span></font></p><span class="q">

</span><p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Michael and Karen are co-coordinating
a WG on this, and a proposal will soon be shared for discussion, as with other
proposal. Anyone who wants to join this WG is welcome.<font color="navy"><span style="color: navy;"> </span></font></span></font></p>

<p style="margin-left: 0.25in;"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">If we can have the proposals from
the WGs by the 23rd we can discuss them in the IGC till the 26th and then put
them for a consensus call. These need to be submitted by 30th. We should get as
much information in as possible to fill in the workshop application form which lists
the following questions. </span></font></p>
