[bestbits] Re: [governance] Rousseff & Chehade: Brazil will host world event on Internet governance in 2014

[Adam Peake]

considering Anriette's last paragraph, that the summit needn't make the IGF irrelevant, but be linked to it.  Is it correct that Brazil has offered to host the IGF in 2015?  Perhaps 18 months between a global summit in April 2014 and IGF in October 2015 (+/- a month) will be an opportunity to work on principles, on the practical implementation of those principle, gain agreement on changes, so that these outcomes can be delivered for discussion at the IGF and then agreement in whatever external process affected by them. 

Of course we don't really know what it is has been proposed, before letting our imaginations get too fanciful, might be best to hear what's said by the Brazil govt and ICANN in Bali.  I think we're sure to hear a lot more.
