<font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Hi All<br>
<br>
Hope that comments by others and the official summary would have
provided the details asked for by Ralf, Milton and others.<br>
<br>
I am reminded of two other key developments that I did not report
earlier.<br>
<br>
1) The secretariat will invite workshop themes rather than workshop
proposals this time. It has its advantages and disadvantages, though on
the balance I am in favour of it. This will allow greater focus in the
workshops by pulling together similar issues together into common
workshops, and can also help the workshops being kept relatively more
aligned to the key topics being </font><font
face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">otherwise </font><font
face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">discussed at the IGF. However
this would not at all be easy to achieve as a process, which is still
to be worked out. For one, there certainly will be a a larger role of
the MAG now in the 'general workshops space' as well, while earlier it
hardly did anything in this space. <br>
<br>
2) Another very important development is that concerned dynamic
coalition are likely to be associated from the very start with the
development of round tables. This first time gives DCs an (important)
official role in the IGF process. Significantly, this role is in an
area which may soon become the most important and looked-forward-to
part of the IGF. <br>
<br>
The two above, I think, are important process innovations for the next
IGF other than the very concept of round tables. <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
