[bestbits] Fwd: [Internet Policy] IGF 2014 Consultation - ISOC Submission

[Jeremy Malcolm]

This is a BIG step for ISOC.  Finally they are suggesting the IGF
produce policy outcome documents open for voluntary adoption, based on
the IETF process... something they had been fiercely resisting for years!

I have been critical of ISOC in the past for not taking this step and
for obstructing similar such proposals (my own and others)... but better
late than never, and we should give credit where credit is due.

Dear Members,

In preparation of Friday's Webinar, please find attached The Internet
Society's recent submission to the IGF 2014 Consultation.

The core of the proposal is to enable the 2014 IGF event to produce
policy outcome documents open for voluntary adoption. In order to get
there, it is suggested to seek inspiration from the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF) in terms of producing outcome documents based on
voluntary adoption and starting substantive inter-sessional work. The
proposal also suggests reviving Best Practice Forums and introducing
Bird of a Feather-type sessions.

We are looking forward to Friday's discussion (details below), which
will precede the next IGF Open Consultations and MAG meetings (19-20
Feb. Geneva: http://www.intgovforum.org/).

Best regards,
Constance

Subject: [Internet Policy] Invitation - ISOC Webinar on the IGF, 14 Feb.
13:30 UTC

Dear Members,

2013 was a pivotal year for the Internet. The revelations around digital
surveillance have raised questions around crucial issues such as
individual rights, privacy and the role of governments. This
increasingly complex scenario is creating important challenges, as well
as new opportunities for the open, multistakeholder model of Internet
governance.

This year promises to be even more important. To share insights and
discuss preparations for the 2014 Internet Governance Forum (2-5 Sept.,
Istanbul, Turkey; http://www.intgovforum.org/ ), we would like to invite
you to join an ISOC Webinar *_on 14 Feb., at 13:30 UTC_*. The intent is
to start preparing for the meeting, in light of the broader Internet
governance landscape.

We are looking forward to the discussion!


Best regards,

--
