[governance] Reconstituting MAG

[Ian Peter]

Jeremy’s comments on this make a lot of sense (follow the link below to see
them)

 

However I suspect we will find it difficult to change the method of SG
selecting members and creating a balance among the various groups. That
means, as happened last time, we can only recommend names and expect some of
them will be rejected.

 

In this context, I would recommend our position be that the MAG should serve
two year terms and then  be totally reconstituted – but with a
recommendation to SG that up to a maximum of 50% be reappointed to provide
continuity.

This is to trigger a discussion, and possibly evolve a consensus statement,
on the issue of reconstituting the MAG – or in the official language
‘suitable rotation among its members, based on recommendations from the
various interested groups’. A discussion thread has been opened on this
issue on the IGF website at HYPERLINK
"http://intgovforum.org/forum/"http://intgovforum.org/forum/ . Strangely,
there is no clear call for sending comments to the IGF secretariat as is the
norm. But I think they would in any case take in comments as they have done
for all MAG meetings, and publish them in the comments page.
