I thought the question might be of interest to everyone: how are these 
sessions organized? A set of panelists picked by the AG, and then open 
discussion from the floor? Will there be a Chair's summary of the 
session? Should positions be in writing? Presented in advance?

How does the average participant raise his/her own issues and gets them 
addressed, or at least reflected in the final summary of the IGF? From 
the floor? Or by finding a panelist that can mention them? Or - to be 
practical ;) - by lobbying the Secretariat?

Sorry for the abundance of ?'s, I know this is a work in progress... but 
I'd hate to have been waiting for one year, come to Athens with a couple 
of "urgent issues that are not being dealt with elsewhere", and then 
fail to get them at least recorded in the proceedings, if not discussed. 
I think that civil society should at least have a way to flag issues for 
subsequent work in "dynamic coalitions".
