<font face="Arial">I agree with McTim strongly on this...<br>
There is no reason to emphasize a 'negative' position on achieving
the assigned outcome.<br>
<br>
In fact, I think it makes more sense to note that there have been
many have been tangible and intangible positive outcomes
directly/indirectly from the IGF process, beyond awareness-raising
and bringing IG issues to regional IGF meetings--what about the
emergence and development of the multistakeholder model? How about
the advances in remote participation, permitting greater inclusion
in global policy processes? What about the diffusion and
replication of best practices? <br>
<br>
The question doesn't ask about our frustration, it asks what we
consider the most important achievement. If we must point out the
frustration, should it not at least be balanced by appreciation
for \ the positive effects? At least we should answer the
question!<br>
<br>
Thanks for doing this work. Much appreciated. I am in the middle
of a workshop in Tobago, and have not reviewed carefully. I think
others should voice their positions as well.<br>

<pre wrap="">Pretty good reply overall.
I would strike "Yet we still have not seen real tangible outcome
directly out of IGF process."
As there are not supposed to be real tangible outcomes, are there??
