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

[michael gurstein]

Would now/Bali be a good time to discuss what possible roles/contributions
an IGF might play in a Brazil led IG initiative..perhaps by
reviewing/identifying precisely what contributions the IGF has made overall
to IG to date. Something I would be very interested to hear the various IGF
insiders/old timers like Bill/Adam/Anriette and Avri make a brief
presentation on at BB perhaps.

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?  

 

Yes, although yesterday I mistakenly typed next year. Wrong region.





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

 

Perhaps starting with the Bali FS 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. 

 

Right. Work to keep IGF in the mix.

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.
