<font face="Verdana">On the other hand, my organisations and 45
others </font>had suggested a Technical Oversight Board which
will consist of 2-3 persons from each geo- political region, these
people being from key technical academic institutions, and a method
selection/ election from among possible candidates from each region
could be devised... Plus, one member from each region could come
from the respective RIR...<br>

This is a much more democratic spread then getting root operators as
ICANN's overseers (an overwhelming number from the US, and all from
developed countries) , or even TLD operators, who are mostly from
the US, apart from the root operator/ TLD owners proposal suffering
from the problem of those regulated overseeing the regulators....<br>

At the very least, a statement from IGC could reference both proposals

<pre wrap="">Do you mean by the March 8th deadline? Otherwise we may certainly have
this
discussion not only for a possible oral contribution during Sao Paulo
proceedings but also for potential input in further processes beyond Sao
Paulo (I'm sure the NETMundial will net be the end of all this search for
the future of Ig.)
