Over a thousand people are heading to Athens, Greece for the first
meeting of the UN-sponsored Internet Governance Forum. Many of them are
still fielding doubts or worries about what the outcome of this new
multi-stakeholder institution is supposed to be. 

In a new paper from the Internet Governance Project, John Mathiason
opens with the famous quote from Yogi Berra, "if you don't know where
you are going, you might not get there." He proposes some specific
outcomes for the Forum that are consistent with the Tunis Agenda and
proposes to use the techniques of "results based management" to assess
how well the Forum achieves them.
