Dear Parminder,<br>
<br>
I understand from your letter with Milton that you are *against* the
creation of an IGF Leadership Panel. What I'd like to hear is what
you and Milton propose instead. It is easy to be against all sorts
of things, but the world isn't static and from the IGF conultations,
it is clear that the current status quo is no longer fit for
purpose. There needs to be evolution.<br>
So what next?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Olivier Crépin-Leblond<br>
(speaking on my own behalf)<br>

the IGF Leadership Panel, and thus legitimizing it. <br>
