Highlighting (since I don't think this is really a new point) that there are numerous Internet and IG-related trans-border issues that require urgent resolution but are not addressed by existing mechanisms, and that any institutional mechanisms needed to address these must do so in a globally democratic, inclusive and fully-participative manner.</div><div><br></div><div>2. To give as an example of such an issue , the lack of any universal principles of framework to guide the resolution of transboundary jurisdiction disputes, which can involve the content host, content owner, content publisher, domain host, domain registrant, domain registrar, and domain registry and their respective countries.</div><div><br></div><div>Maybe also others points, drawing on what Miguel wrote, but let's here from more voices on the list between now and Wednesday.</div><div><div>
