In the absence of any really<br>convincing answer to the question of who else should do this :-) we<br>have done so.<br><br>By necessity my participation in this process was not a formal<br>nomination activity of the Caucus, which would have required a NomCom,<br>and without a
standing NomCom available for any tasks that might come<br>up, there was simply not enough time for initiating a NomCom<br>process.<br><br>First there was the request regarding the opening session, and very<br>recently the request regarding the other sessions. In each case a<br>reasonably quick response was expected.<br><br>I recommend that for future major events, a NomCom should be set up well<br>in advance, and it should prepare well in advance with thoughts on<br>potential nominees and selection criteria.<br><br>For the current WSIS+10 event, a very much ad hoc process was used,<br>where I have done my best to take into account the responses to the call<br>for expressions of interest that I posted here on the list.<br><br>I believe that we have a very good end result:<br><br><br>Opening session:<br> Grace Githaiga<br><br>"High level" session on Monday afternoon:<br> Anriette Esterhuysen and Michael Gurstein<br><br>Closing:<br>
Anita Gurumurthy<br><br><br>I have also encouraged these civil society representatives to consult<br>widely, as per the email message pasted below.<br><br>Greetings,<br>Norbert<br><br><br>--snip------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>Janis Karklins <<a ymailto="mailto:j.karklins@unesco.org" href="mailto:j.karklins@unesco.org">j.karklins@unesco.org</a>> wrote:<br><br>> I am writing to you with proposal to take the floor on behalf of the<br>> civil society<br><br>Dear Anita, Anriette, Grace and Michael (the civil society<br>representatives at the plenaries of WSIS+10)<br><br>As you probably know, Janis Karklins of UNESCO had requested Marianne<br>and myself to suggest speakers for the WSIS+10 main sessions to<br>represent civil society. In the absence of any really convincing answer<br>to the question of who else should do this :-) we have done so.<br><br>Speaking just from my personal perspective right now, I
would like to<br>encourage all of you to consult widely on what are important points to<br>make, using the mailing lists of the Internet Governance Caucus and the<br>Internet Rights and Principles coalition and whatever other networks<br>you're active in.<br><br>Of course if you do that, given the great breadth and diversity of<br>civil society, you're going to get more suggestions than you can use,<br>and it's of course each panelist's discretion to select which of the<br>points you want to mention and which of them you want to specifically<br>emphasize and how much you want to add from your personal perspective -<br>also taking into account what in your view may have been<br>underemphasized by other civil society speakers.<br><br>Overall (and I emphasize again that I'm speaking just from my personal<br>perspective here), I think that it is particularly important to clearly<br>draw attention to important points that have so far been
largely<br>overlooked or ignored in the IGF process and other WSIS followup<br>processes.<br><br>Greetings,<br>Norbert<br><br><br><br><br><br>____________________________________________________________<br>You received this message as a subscriber on the list:<br> <a ymailto="mailto:governance@lists.igcaucus.org" href="mailto:governance@lists.igcaucus.org">governance@lists.igcaucus.org</a><br>To be removed from the list, visit:<br> <a href="http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing" target="_blank">http://www.igcaucus.org/unsubscribing</a><br><br>For all other list information and functions, see:<br> <a href="http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance" target="_blank">http://lists.igcaucus.org/info/governance</a><br>To edit your profile and to find the IGC's charter, see:<br> <a href="http://www.igcaucus.org/" target="_blank">http://www.igcaucus.org/</a><br><br>Translate this email: <a
