it is not the IGF Secretariat but the UN Secretary General.  and I  
don't think there is anyone outside his office who can speak to his  
thoughts on that.

just my opinion, of course.

also just my opinion, but the Tunis Agenda makes that distinction.   
and in my view describes a matrix, with 3 stakeholder groups in one  
dimension and 2 named groups striped across those stakeholder groups   
as cross cutting influences in the other dimension.  if one stops to  
think there are probably other cross-cutting groups that were not  
explicitly mentioned, but implicitly by this being the UN and everyone  
believing in the importance of diversity, like ; gender groups,  
regional groups, disability groups, religious groups  ...
