Question number 8 -<span style="font-weight: normal"> "What
are the most appropriate mechanisms to fully implement enhanced
cooperation as recognized in the Tunis Agenda, <b>including</b>
on
international public policy issues pertaining to the Internet and<b>
public policy issues associated with coordination and management
of
critical Internet resources</b>? </span>

<br>
</b>The question clearly seeks response as to what changes/
evolution the respondent wants to see in global IG mechanism,
including in that part dealing with coordination and management of
critical Internet resources.<br>
<br>
Why did ARIN and others not say in their response that they would
like to see "truly substantial" evolution/ change in these
mechanisms as they exist today, as the Montevideo statement seem to
indicate.<br>
<br>
For convenience of others here, I quote as below the response that
ARIN gave to the above question in their response to WGEC. (Similar
responses were given by other signatories of the Montevideo
statement)<br>
<br>
<blockquote>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm">"Since their inception, many of the
organizations associated with the coordination and management of
critical Internet number resources have employed various media
such
as open mailing lists, websites and open face-to-face meetings,
to
reach those with an interest in these topics. Additionally, the
IGFs
on all levels, national, regional and global, have been
instrumental
in encouraging interaction between the stakeholders. The
increase in
communications and outreach has resulted in a better
understanding of
the issues for all involved stakeholders."</p>

Does it sound like ARIN seeks "truly substantive" evolution/ change
anywhere at all? Not to me. <br>
