Indeed, and basically conflates your views on enhanced cooperation with the notion of a development agenda.  Do you believe it'd be easy for a diverse group to reach consensus on such points in a day?

Here's another development agenda paper http://www.academia.edu/1902649/Drake_William_J._2010._IG4D_Toward_a_Development_Agenda_for_Internet_Governance._In_Internet_Governance_Creating_Opportunities_for_All---The_Fourth_Internet_Governance_Forum_Sharm_el_Sheikh_Egypt_15-18_November_2009_edited_by_William_J._Drake_57-75._New_York_The_United_Nations  that focused more on the procedural side and argues for having working groups under the IGF aegis, which I'd like to see for enhanced cooperation (to be discussed at the event following BB http://ec-event-igf2012.apc.org/programme.

Again, I'd argue for an institution building procedural focus as something that might actually be doable in the time available, and useful as input to the IGF meeting.

Best,

Bill
