[governance] Proposal for the 23rd May IGF consultationand advisory group meeting please

[yehudakatz at mailinator.com]

Paraminder, Wolfgang, Bill;

I think all you [Paraminder, Wolfgang, Bill] who have contributed
intellectually to this thread, have done a fine job. ( I don’t mean/intended to
put you down)

I’m playing a bit of a Devils Advocate - for the purpose of stimulation.
That is, As Devils Advocate it is my job to push you into taking ‘ACTION’.

So I will now dispense with the next prodding. 

Devils Advocate:

You are correct in having the various appendages of the UN, ICANN & NGOs*
assessed, in question (1).

However by summarizing the individual Agency’s IG activities prior to this
meeting, provides you with a laundry-list of; Accomplished & Un-Accomplished
Benchmarks.

In effect, it is time to handout the Report Cards. (Take Charge)

Otherwise the conditions of Question  (1) as is, will only produce an ‘applause
from the Agency’s to each Other, and an applause from the Agency’s to the IGF. 
[“Here Here” … “Hip Hip” … Hurrah!) 
This is not a Dr. Phil’s feel-good cocktail party.

Rather on the contrary, With Report Cards in hand; **

1. Dole out the Discipline, (Explain what Benchmarks the Agency: Reached or did
not reach, too the Agencies One-by-One)

2. Set condition with the Agency for New Benchmarks.

3.Get Contractual Affirmation of the New Benchmarks, Right there, Right Then.
[Have your “Contract with the IGF” in hand to disperse] 

4. No-One leaves the Table until you have an Actionable List of Benchmarks.

5. Require each Agency to Publicly Acknowledge their Benchmark.

6. Confirm with each Agent their responsibility.

That’s “your” new Laundry List.

I am the Devils Advocate, and it my job to push you into ‘ACTION’.
I realize that doesn’t sound very “Diplomatic”.
When the going gets Tough, The Tough get Going.

It’s Time.

Devils Advocate: Agrees ... IGOs (like ITU, WIPO, WTO, UNESCO)
