Izumi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>a creative approach, and one which would speak for consistency in this community, would be to set up a benchmark and see how far the ITU complies with it as the process takes place over the coming months.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One particularly relevant benchmark would be the Accountability and Transparency Review of ICANN or related documents, mostly the updates on how ICANN has taken measures to comply with the recommendations of the ATRT. See if non-governmental participants
have access to key documents, access to discussions, the ability to organize themselves, and impact on decisions. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We all know that ICANN needs to improve in all these aspects but it's a good benchmark. I've once graded several organizations related to WSIS. It's a complex exercise in evaluation but it can be done in a way that yields a few very clear results.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yours,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
