[governance] Deadline for further input into enhanced cooperation statement

[Jeremy Malcolm]

David Allen who will be presenting the IGC's statement in New York (by summarising what we already put forward in writing at http://www.igcaucus.org/node/43, and adding any further input) has asked that we try to finalise our further input by Wednesday, so that he has time to hone what he wants to say and to make sure that it fits into five minutes.

So to try to draw things together by then, it seems to me that we probably have a good measure of support to add at least the following points to our statement:

1. Highlighting (since I don't think this is really a new point) that there are numerous Internet and IG-related trans-border issues that require urgent resolution but are not addressed by existing mechanisms, and that any institutional mechanisms needed to address these must do so in a globally democratic, inclusive and fully-participative manner.

2. To give as an example of such an issue , the lack of any universal principles of framework to guide the resolution of transboundary jurisdiction disputes, which can involve the content host, content owner, content publisher, domain host, domain registrant, domain registrar, and domain registry and their respective countries.

Maybe also others points, drawing on what Miguel wrote, but let's here from more voices on the list between now and Wednesday.
