<div>Hi All:</div>
<div>First I would like to thank all the Caucus members who worked hard in putting together the workshop proposals. Find below my Comments on each proposal:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. The Transboundary Internet: Jurisdiction, Control and Sovereignty<br>This is an important issue that needs to be understood by developing countries. On a global level, we need to have a clear famework on how to deal with the transboundary Internet. Issues related to consumer protection, copyrights, privacy and spam are just part of the issues that relates to this topic which I hope that workshop will link its discusson to them. I supoort this workshop. YES.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2. The Future of ICANN: After the JPA, What?<br>Indeed another important workshop which is linked to the Internet critical resources theme. People in the development world need to know about it and hear equally from all invovlved parties. With regard of Milton comment on the need of a prespective from the developing countries, I will be more than happy to provide a prespective on this issue (if needed). I also hope that the participation of Nashwa Abdul Baki may help too. This is another important Workshop which I fully support. YES.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>3. A Rights Agenda for Internet Governance<br>Very unfortunate that the file did not open correctly in my browser but from following some of the discussion on this workshop I do find that the topic is important for all intennet users. I support this workshop. YES.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>4. The role and mandate of the IGF</div>
<div>As Meryem said this is the flagship of the IGC. This is an important workshop that we need to have in every IGC Meeting. On reason for this is that it will always provide people who are new to the IG process the necessary background they need to know. Another reason is that this workshop is a kind of an assessment to what extent the IGC process was successful in meeting its mandate according to the Tunis Agenda. What I would like to see further in this workshop is a discussion on enhanced cooperation. I would suggest also that a historical backgorund on the IG process would be presented at the begining of the workshop. I support this Workshop. YES.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>All the best,,</div>

<br>These are being put for a 48 hour consensus process. If a consensus or a<br>rough consensus is made out, these proposals will be submitted to the IGF<br>secretariat on the 30th, around 5 PM GMT.<br><br>Please indicate a clear 'yes' or 'no' for forwarding these proposals, as<br>
they stand...<br><br>While additional comments justifying a yes or no vote may be made, they<br>should follow a clear unqualified 'yes' or 'no'.<br><br>In fact such additional comments are welcome especially in case of a 'no'<br>
vote, because it helps calling a possible rough consensus, taking into<br>consideration the nature and the extent of dissent.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Parminder<br>____________________________________________________________<br>
