Hi all,

thanks for this briefing . In my modeste experience and to be in africa
reality , I think three themes above can be maintened in topics:

* Reaching the next billion;

* Promoting cyber-security and trust;

* Managing critical Internet resources;

> Hi,

> we had quite a good discussion at the caucus meeting in Hyderabad about
> possible topics for the next IGF. Parminder proposed a 'rights based
> approach to IG' as an over-arching theme for the next IGF.
>
> I think should continue this discussion on this list since it would be good
> if we could come up with proposals for topics at the next public
> consultation in Geneva in February 2009.

> I am not sure though if we should focus on the over-arching theme for the
> next IGF. In case you don't remember, the overall theme for this year's IGF
> was "Internet for all". My impression is that these over-arching themes
> don't matter that much, not only because they tend to be shallow but more so
> because the underlying topics are too diverse to reflect in any meaningful
> way the overall topic.
>
> We should focus on the themes for the main session instead. For those who
> didn't follow closely, this year's themes were:
>
>       * Reaching the next billion;
>
>       * Promoting cyber-security and trust;
>
>       * Managing critical Internet resources;
>
>       * Taking stock and the way forward;
>
>       * Emerging issues - the Internet of tomorrow
>
> I heard several people saying that access related topics (reaching the next
> billion) need a break as there is nothing new to discuss next year.  Do
> others agree? What are other topics we want to see discussed? In my view,
> critical Internet resources should stay on the agenda.

> best, jeanette
