[governance] URGENT - Proposal: guidelines to send IGC submissions

[Meryem Marzouki]

Hi all,

Please find below very quick guidelines that could be followed to  
send finalized submissions on Tuesday (tomorrow) from the governance  
caucus to IGF. I think they are workable.
Best,
Meryem

- Guidelines for proponents:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1/ Any individual or group who want its submission(s) to be sent  
through the IGF caucus should post a message before Tuesday, 1pm CET,  
with:
- the name(s) of the proponent(s)
- the clear mention that this is/are the final version(s) of the  
proposal(s)
- its finalized proposal(s) as attached files

2/ This should be done whether or not the proposal has already been  
sent by Robert

- Guidelines for the caucus:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1/ The caucus only submit to IGF proposal(s) made by either  
individuals or groups (groups of individuals, NGOs, institutions,  
projects, etc.).

2/ The caucus will NOT send proposals originating from any other WSIS  
CS coalition with a "status" comparable to the governance caucus  
(i.e. proposals from Privacy and Security Working Group, from the  
Education, Academia and Research Taskforce, from regional caucuses,  
from the Human Rights caucus will NOT be sent through the governance  
caucus. In any case, those which have been posted to this mailing  
list have already been sent by their own to the IGF).

3/ I will keep track of the proposals sent to this list, before  
Tuesday 1pm CET according to the guidelines for proponents and to the  
guidelines for the caucus (item 1 and 2 of this section).
I will send a compilation of them to the list before Tuesday 2pm CET.
If there is no opposition from proponents, the list of these  
proposals will be sent to IGF secretariat by Tuesday 4pm CET.

4/ The final list of proposals will be sent to IGF by Robert, with  
the governance caucus list in Cc.
The accompanying message should state that:
- This submission replaces the former submission made by Robert
- The proposals contained in the submission is made by individuals  
and/or groups members of the governance caucus.
- The governance caucus has decided NOT to make any priority list,  
and NOT to keep within the limits of the three themes.
- The governance caucus reminds the position expressed by many of its  
members at the IGF consultation meeting in Geneva: the IGF is seen as  
an umbrella under which various initiatives could be taken on a  
bottom-up basis by
concerned stakeholders. We recommend to create working groups to deal  
with the various proposed issues, in the framework of an on-going  
process. [or any better formulation of this].
