To be honest, I had not expect this contract after Markus' departure and therefore had started commenting freely on IGF when I wasn't on contract - something I had avoided in the past when I had expected the contract to be renewed.<br>

I would suggest that in the future, an 'abstain option' with optional opportunity to log the reason, be included in ballots.<br>

After discussion with Izumi we are declaring the statement approved by consensus, with the two additions earlier discussed. The final statement is now linked from the front page of our Web site and will be submitted to the Secretariat.<br>
