Now that you ask so bluntly...
I notice that the traffic on this list has increased steadily over the 
last weeks. My concern is that the signal to noise ratio decreases to a 
point where people give up reading the messages or even worse, 
unsubscribe. This list has become a relevant space for a fairly diverse 
bunch of people who are interested in issues related to Internet 
Governance. At the same time, it is the central working space for our 
contributions to WSIS. The more traffic and communicative circles we 
generate on this list, the less likely it is that we actually listen to 
each other.

Less is more, as we say in german! Thus, I'd like to ask people to focus 
on the specific tasks ahead of us until Tunis, as described by Adam: 1. 
We need to comment on the latest version of the chair's paper; 2. we 
need to come up with our own statement.
