<div>Hi Mawaki</div>

<div>I think it would be great if IGC could make some
sort of submission for NetMundial, but with a March
8 deadline and a preceding consensus call it may
prove difficult</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would leave my proposal re IANA out of it
because I know many here have different opinions
(some slight, some major) and I dont think a
consensus statement could be achieved. So perhaps we
should concentrate on Louis’s list of principles, ie</div>

for IGC to be a co-signatory?</font></div>

<div dir="ltr">Dear All,
<div> </div>
<div>First of all, I wish to apologize on
behalf of Deirdre and myself for the
prolonged silence. We both have been caught
at the same time in other immediate
commitments with various demands on our
time, including traveling and the burdens
that come with (starting with the reason why
one might be traveling in the first place
which can only be carried out during the
limited time of such travels.) Anyway, you
get my drift...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now I'd like to get the ball rolling on
things that we as IGC might want to do this
year by building on those who have already
posted ideas and suggestions regarding the
NetMundial at <span
style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">São</span>
Paulo. While it may be late for starting to
prepare a written submission which is
expected to be in by March 8, perhaps we may
still start working out something that could
be delivered during the proceedings if we
are given the opportunity (or simply as a
first step in the formulation of some basic
ideas we might seek consensus on at some
point in the process in response to Ig
challenges of the day, even beyond <span
style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">São</span>
Paulo.)</div>
<div> </div>
<div>On that note, I remember Antonio Medina
Gómez sending to the list a note dated Jan
22 where he volunteered "<span
style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">to
attend the meeting and act as Rapporteur
for the IGC to report back on meetings in
real time. Let me know what your thoughts
are. I will also update you daily and at
the end of the meeting produce a report on
key observations. I think having a team of
IGC rapporteurs would be useful and I am
willing to volunteer."</span></div>
<div><span
style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br>
</span></div>
<div>So maybe beyond written submissions, the
question that looms ahead is: How are we
going to organize IGC presence and
participation in the proceedings in <span
style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">São</span>
Paulo? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Meanwhile and for immediate
consideration, I have seen over the recent
days two proposals/statements that appear to
me a good starting point for discussing any
possible input by IGC or subsets/member of
IGC. One is more about principles and the
other more focused on a practical solution
to one problem. I have copied and pasted
them as follows. </div>

Roadmap (and principles) for internalisation
of the former IANA functions within the
multistakeholder ICANN model.<br>
<br>
This roadmap concentrates on one internet
governance issue only – the future of the IANA
functions which have been the subject of much
past discussion because current arrangements
are seen by many to be outside of the
preferred multistakeholder model.<br>
<br>
Indeed, IANA itself was established in an era
before current internet governance models
(multistakeholder) and governance institutions
(eg ICANN) were in existence.<br>
<br>
ROADMAP<br>
<br>
This roadmap suggests that the IANA functions,
though necessary processes in the secure and
authoritative functioning of the Internet, no
longer need a separate entity and would more
productively merged with similar functions
under the auspices of ICANN. Subject of course
to many concerns about details, this direction
appears to have widespread support from
governments, civil society, technical
community, and private sector.<br>
<br>
In order to achieve this desired change
efficiently and productively, the following
roadmap is proposed.<br>
<br>
1. ICANN should be requested to prepare
a proposal for management of the previous IANA
functions within the ICANN multistakeholder
model, bearing in mind the following criteria:<br>
<br>
(a) protection of the root zone from political
or other improper interference;<br>
<br>
(b) integrity, stability, continuity, security
and robustness of the administration of the
root zone;<br>
<br>
(c) widespread [international] trust by
Internet users in the administration of this
function; (d) support of a single unified root
zone; and<br>
<br>
(e) agreement regarding an accountability
mechanism for this function that is broadly
accepted as being in the global public
interest."<br>
<br>
2. Preparation of the proposal should involve
discussion with all major stakeholder groups,
with a completion timetable for a first draft
for discussion at the Internet Governance
Forum in Turkey in September 2014.<br>
<br>
3. To expedite completion in a timely manner,
it is suggested that outside consultants be
engaged to prepare the discussion paper
(proposal) in consultation with major
stakeholders.<br>
<br>
4. The solution must have the following
characteristics<br>
<br>
(a) offers a legal structure that is robust
against rogue litigation attacks<br>
<br>
(b) is aligned with the Internet technical
infrastructure in a way that supports
innovative, technology based evolution of the
DNS .<br>
<br>
(c) is an inclusive model<br>
<br>
(d) is a demonstrable improvement on current
processes in this area<br>
<br>
END of proposals
<div> </div>
<div>Deirdre also has suggested the
possibility of a series of very short
statements (micro-blogging kind of length)
to capture succinct positions on critical
points. She will probably say more on that
in the next couple of days.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Meanwhile I am inviting you all to step
forward and share your thought about the
above.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you. <br>
