<pre wrap="">Thanks, Divina.
In future G8 and G20 forums, it would be nice to hold a side event or simply
participate to a session at the Avignon Forum (side-event to the G20) where
all stakeholders would be invited to participate: civil society, business
and the Internet technical community.

The point remains who will fund such a side event? Will civil
society participants be able to attend? Our best bet is publicly
funded events/ forums with clearly laid out funding support
provisions. There is no multistakeholderism or participatory
democracy without such proactive measures in place. Parminder <br>

On another note, ISOC, ISOC France, the W3C, the NRO and ICANN are preparing
a common press release for the upcoming eG8 (24-25 May), emphasizing the
WSIS heritage and the importance of a multi-stakeholder approach.
Best regards,

Subject: Re: [governance] Petition on G8
Dear all
A quick follow-up on our open letter to president Sarkozy:
-it was sent to and acknowledged by the person close to the president in
charge of organizing the event
-it was sent to and acknowldedged by the person at the Foreign affairs
ministry that follows internet governance issues
-it was sent to Agence France Presse
-it has receveid support by Ligue des droits de l'homme
-Le Monde didn't publish it in its "debate" columns though it did
consider it and it is going to report on the e-G8
-it will be debated in two news-programmes on France Culture: "Un jour
sur la toile" (next weekend) and "enjeux internationaux" (30 may)
Please note the proposed action of the French "Quadrature du net" at this
address:

rol-of-the-net
There is this idea, rapidly discussed with Constance Bommelaer from ISOC, to
do a civil society/technical community event prior to G20 in Cannes ...
Please let us exchange, if you have other contacts or other news of
activities
Best
