Dear Izumi.<div>I'm replying this way because I think the addresses got muddled again so this sends your message to the whole list.</div><div><br></div><div>Reading this paragraph:</div><div>- To focus discussions, the preparation process of each IGF<br>

<div><br></div><div>I wondered if it would be possible to alter the perspective on remote participation by turning it into a general policy issue. Remote participation falls into the "internet" arena very neatly, but it is also used by people with no overt IG connection - vide our small local literary group which has remote participants from Turkey and Brazil.?</div>

- to go in small groups or keep the plenary discussion.<br>
Most governments wanted to go in plenary, and that the way to go,<br>
<br>
- style of report - resolution style or recommendation, short and<br>
concise, need chapeau etc<br>
agreed<br>
--<br>
Today we are going work on A & B, tomorrow, on C &D, Wednesday, on E<br>
and finalize the report.<br>
<br>
A - Shaping the outcomes of IGF meetings<br>
<br>
Some asked: Who is going to implement these recommendations?<br>
<br>
After several rounds of discussions, the Chair asked to form a small<br>
group over coffee break,<br>
and then came back and discussed a little more, but went to Lunch,<br>
including the continuation<br>
of the small group discussion/negotiation.<br>
<br>
Now, this is the latest text proposal to be discussed after the lunch<br>
made among different members together:<br>
<br>
----<br>
<br>
Develop more tangible and impact oriented outputs<br>
<br>
- To focus discussions, the preparation process of each IGF<br>
should formulate a set of policy questions to be considered at the<br>
IGF, as part of the overall discussion. The results of the debates of<br>
these questions should be stated in the outcome documentation with<br>
special focus on policy perspectives and aimed at capacity building.<br>
<br>
- New ways should be found to extract the outcomes of<br>
discussions at the IGF in the form of messages {or topical reports},<br>
that should map out consensus and diverging opinions and capture the<br>
range of policy options available, especially with regard to the<br>
identified set of policy question<br>
<br>
- The IGF should continue to produce its current reports,<br>
including the chairman´s report, the sessions transcripts, the<br>
workshop reports and the overall proceedings.<br>
