[governance] Seem to be Agendizing

I just made a new word, in lines of securitization and gravitas.  Whether it be 
differing Civil Societies or Academics or Genderficationists or developing 
nationalists we are seeing a great trend toward promoting the angles and agendas 
of groups using Internet Governance as a platform.  They are in fact Agendizing 
the concept.  It has been a great while since I saw or heard someone offer -- 
"this would really be a good method of governing".  Generally we are seeing -- 
"Hey Women need a voice" or "Only poverty stricken citizens need apply" or 
"ICANN Sucks".  People are not here to forward a notion of good international 
governance of our, net, web, and electronic communications but rather as 
soldiers of some other war that requires a visit to this arena.

Agendizing -- The act of making a cause,,, all about me and not the cause.
