<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"'>It allowed

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:navy'>Definitely
an important point here, Milton. However, as I understand it, at this point we
are not putting any real “work” or commitment into the workshop proposal, but
brainstorming basic ideas. Interested groups would continue/commit with the
process after the next step by the Secretariat. For the moment, it is quite an
informal proposition, as I see it, to measure the amount of interest and to
facilitate groupings before much energy is invested in the workshop design and
planning. I think this is better than developing a full workshop proposal only
to be told that workshops will be combined/not approved. <b>It also allows for
suggestions/support for workshops by people who are not interested in
organizing them, but in attending them</b>. Personally, I see this as an
opportunity to ask for someone else to organize a workshop that I see as
necessary to help me and the IG situation.</span><span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p>

for bringing this up. We should be clear on this. I see the IGC role at this

are basically frozen in place by Bertrand's suggestion (statement?) that the
method of workshop planning and development will be completely different this
year. I am surprised that there has been no response to my expressed concerns
about this, and until there is some clarification or discussion of those basic
parameters, I think it is unwise to invest time in developing workshops.
Indeed, I am not even sure I would plan to attend the IGF if certain
worst-case scenarios play out. </span><span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:blue'>We have been told, in effect, "don't develop a detailed,
coherent program for a workshop and don't line up any people, because whatever
idea you have is going to be treated as a general "theme" and then
thrown into a huge pot and re-sorted into MAG-defined groups." And those
groups may be a bunch of people who hardly know each other with different, sometimes
conflicting agendas. If I am not correctly apprehending the meaning of those
changes please correct me. In the meantime, I await an appropriate
response. </span><span lang=ES><o:p></o:p></span></p>
