Vilnius.... these are our long standing demands.... and what is the
point not to suggest even broad areas for themes, when the present
meeting will decide the themes, and a good part of the IGF is about
these key themes for each IGF. <br>
<br>
I will suggest we also propose 'Network Neutrality or Open Internet' as
a theme (good work was done on this theme by IGC co-sponsored workshop
in IGF Sharm on this issue, and this work should be taken forward in a
main session now)<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Ginger will be at the open consultation meeting and can deliver an oral statement on themes for the Vilnius meeting, separately to our statement looking back at Sharm el Sheikh. It is entirely appropriate to split up our statements like this, and there is precedent for it.</div><div><br></div><div>So, let's get to work on such a statement now. I don't think it needs to be very long, and indeed we could just put forward some bullet points for Ginger to elaborate upon on the day.
