    Hi Anja  - just to say that I did refer to the ideas in this paper
    during the WGEC meeting this morning, though the quality of remote
    participation made indepth discussion problematic.<br>
    Cheers<br>

              <div>Dear all,<br>
                <br>
              </div>
              A lot of the discussion in the WGEC this morning seems to
              have been about whether a new mechanism is needed or
              whether existing mechanisms should be expanded and
              improved upon. <br>
              <br>
              The Internet Democracy Project believes that we might need
              a bit of both, though even new mechanisms should be
              issue-specific, rather than being umbrella mechanisms that
              deal with all kinds of topics. Neither the status quo nor
              a unitary solution but a decentralised democratic and
              multistakeholder model of global Internet governance is
              the way forward.<br>
              <br>
              In terms of where moving forward should then happen for
              different issues, we believe that much of the work of
              locating such venues has already been done in the context
              of the WSIS Action Lines, and rather than starting again
              from scratch, this work should now be built upon, and the
              Action Lines revived and reformed to make sure that their
              potential also bears fruit. <br>
              <br>
            </div>
            Our ideas are outlined in this short paper: <a

            <br>

          Any feedback and further ideas of course most welcome,
          including offlist.<br>

              <div>Dear All,</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Firstly, I would like to wish all the CS WGEC members
                best of luck in their meetings and deliberations.</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Here are some personal views. Noting para 19 of the
                Secretary General's 2011 on Enhanced Cooperation on
                Public Policy Issues pertaining to the Internet, see: <a
                  moz-do-not-send="true"
                  href="http://unctad.org/meetings/en/SessionalDocuments/a66d77_en.pdf"
                  target="_blank">http://unctad.org/meetings/en/SessionalDocuments/a66d77_en.pdf</a>
                where it states that the Tunis Agenda "recognizes the
                need for enhanced cooperation in Internet Related
                international public policy making but not in the day to
                day operational and technical matters that do not have
                an impact on international public policy issues."</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Today as the WGEC continues its discussions, there is
                a notable shift. The global community appears to have
                mixed reactions with the Tunis Agenda and its relevance.
                The NRO facilitated a Workshop [No. 145] at the IGF
                recently on Enhanced Cooperation where civil society,
                technical community, private sector, intergovernmental
                representatives showed practical examples of enhanced
                cooperation. Suffice to say there are many practical
                examples of enhanced cooperation, we only need to
                dialogue with each other and across communities and
                constituencies to find out.</div>
              <div><br>
              </div>
              <div>Of greater concern to me is that civil society
                holistically as it funnels through appointments to the
                MAG, CSTD needs to coordinate a framework for selection.
                No person should arbitrarily decide the process of
                selection without discussion with the coalition of
                stakeholders within civil society. This framework should
                be tight and representatives to the MAG, CSTD should be
                held accountable to all not just their flavour of the
                month group. As we prepare to make an announcement soon
                for calls for NomCom volunteers for MAG selection, we
                will also revisit and make calls for noteworthy remarks
                of fantastic work done and/or issues that people may
                have with current MAG representatives from civil
                society.</div>
