short, direct statement to the OC in May, gently, or non-aggressively
requesting that Internet Rights and Principles be given a priority placement
in the IGF 2009 for establishing a definition of the phrase, in response to
the statement in the Programme Paper (<A

<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN
lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">“While some favoured the inclusion of
‘Internet rights and principles’ as a cross-cutting theme, the view was also
held that there was no established definition of this theme and that therefore
it should not be discussed at the Sharm El Sheikh
meeting.”<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal dir=ltr><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3><SPAN
lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Personally it seems to me that if an issue
as important as this one cannot be discussed because a definition does not
exists, then that means it is past time to clarify the meaning of the phrase.
