That someone might be me (I'm on the CSISAC steering committee), and yes, I am already firmly making the point that the OECD's Internet Policy Principles are not democratically legitimate, to the working group that is discussing their outreach.  There are things that I'm not allowed to share from what goes on at the OECD (yay transparency), but let me know if you would like more information on the state of this.

I'm also on the Consumer Policy Committee which is working on policy recommendations on digital content products, and mobile and online payments.  Also happy to link people in with that, if they are interested.
