There are to-many angles involved now, for the IGF to be singularly effective.

For instance, take this morning's Wall Street Journal artical:

CWA Calls On FCC To Include Web COs In Internet Rule 

By Fawn Johnson 
Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
Art. Ref.: http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20091015-716646.html 

The Communications Workers of America is calling on the Federal Communications
Commission to include Web companies like Google Inc. (GOOG) in new Internet
rules, signaling increasing pressure on regulators to tread carefully in
imposing the regulations .... 

Unions are now taking action, so its just a matter of time untill Other Labor
Unions that depend on the Internet, take some actions in regards to the
[Governance].

-

Peter my take is; Eventually the Finacile Markets, Unionized Labor, National
Politics, and Religoius factors will shape (governance) the Net. 

That is to say, the Real-World Controllers will work their way into the fabric
of Internet Governace because of the Internets' "power-of-advocacy", due to the
Net's effective & prolific communication capabilities.

The IGF had better get it together quickly, the competiors are close.
