Parminder,

I'm not going to refute each of your points, as I can't really
understand them (I understand each word separately, but the way you've
strung them together makes them indecipherable to me) NB this is not a
personal insult, it's just that our perspectives are so opposed that
we are talking past each other.

so to save further agony to the other 300+ people on the list, I will
just state:

1)  I doubt you will get consensus on this list for removing the 4th
stakeholder group from the MAG (or reducing it).

2) If the IGC does recommend to the MAG to remove the 4th stakeholder
group, they will ignore this recommendation (and laugh at us).

3) If we do #2, we risk alienating the "Internet technical community"
(this is not my term BTW). If they have so much "power", why won't
they just "take their ball and go home".  They don't need the IGF/IGC,
but the IGF certainly needs them.

If we want enhanced cooperation, we as CS IGC have to start
approaching the level of cooperation shown by the Inet community.
