[governance] Submitting the theme proposals today

[Meryem Marzouki]

Hi again,

There's something unclear to me here. What sh/would be sent under the  
governance caucus rubric, and what sh/wouldn't ? We all perfectly  
know that the mention 'from various individuals/groups within the  
caucus' means 'proposed by the caucus' for many officials/ 
governements and even other people. This is a subtlety that may make  
us more comfortable on the list, but that is hardly understood  
outside this list.

I just had a look at the proposals submitted so far to IGF (http:// 
www.intgovforum.org/contributions_sa.htm). Among them, there are  
proposals sent for discussion on the list (Internet governance  
project proposals). Among the three IGP proposals, there is one sent  
twice, once from the IGP and once from IGP + RSF + Article 19.
Will these proposals be sent again as 'from various individuals/ 
groups within the caucus' ?
Will proposals sent to the list for information (IP Justice proposal,  
HR caucus proposal, Privacy and Security group proposal) or even not  
sent yet (APC proposal) be also sent by this caucus to IGF as 'from  
various individuals/groups within the caucus'?

In fine, the point is to know who's supporting what and,  
consequently, which proposal has gained enough support from others so  
that it is better considered by IGF. BTW, who's IGF as for now ? who  
will decide on the final "top 3"? The MAG ? The 'rough consensus'?  
The invisible hand of the multistakeholders? Any other?
And, additional question, whether we would have a mean to support  
proposal X or Y when the IGF will publish the whole list of proposals  
sent on time.

In summary, what will happen after March 31st on the IGF agenda  
setting side?
Thanks for any answer/guess

Meryem
