I can't offer to improve regional or gender balance... but what I would
go into the MAG with a very concrete mission.  There is a pressing need
for someone on the MAG who is directly involved with the efforts to
improve tangible IGF outcomes.  I was responsible for the initial trial
with Idea Rating Sheets by the dynamic coalitions last year, and was
also an advisory committee member on the experimental Deliberative
Poll.  I am convinced that initiatives such as these are the future for
the IGF.  However, I also experienced a lot of misunderstanding from the
MAG, and efforts from MAG members to oppose these initiatives.  It would
be extremely helpful if I were on the inside, and could be more
proactive in promoting IGF innovations, and gaining MAG support for
them.  This would be a continuation of my unbroken track record of
promoting reforms to the IGF dating back to its inception.
