[governance] Requesting Comments for an Internet Governance

[Fouad Bajwa]

Hi Eric,

True but the objective is to learn from you and everyone on this list.
If we don't discuss and we don't share, how will we learn and how will
we relate and compare and search for possible answers? Lets continue
to help out each other. By the way, I have not stereotyped or pin
pointed any region in particular, I have request to share your
comments in the light of identifying, analysing and suggesting a
development agenda with respect to IG.
