I think that would be a great line-up, Fouad! Maybe this way we might convince prof. Mueller to attend the IGF after all =)<br>
I agree, there's no sense in gathering people like this to discuss an issue of such relevance in only 1-2 hours.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Apr 15, 2011 at 09:57, Fouad Bajwa <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:fouadbajwa@gmail.com" target="_blank">fouadbajwa@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I would propose to have a balance of perspectives then. If there was<br>
one member from each, say one from the FCC, one from Corporations or<br>
like Vint Cerf and Milton Mueller from Civil Society from the US and<br>
then on the developing country bench, one from the Brazilian Govt, one<br>
from Corporate Sector in Africa and Parminder from IGC, then we would<br>
have a strong debate and equal contribution. I would then propose<br>
going for a super workshop of 3 hours straight so that the<br>
participants can also have two minutes.<br>
