[governance] New York - EC consultation

[Roland Perry]

It turns out that everyone who wanted to speak was given an opportunity, 
plus an open discussion at the end of the day.

The chair's view was that the ECOSOC resolution, which 'invited' him to 
call the meeting, had defined Enhanced CoOperation and IGF as two 
separate projects ("if you want to change that - pass a new 
resolution").

And while the IGF was a popular talking shop, which everyone wanted to 
continue, it was an example of cooperation (albeit with developing 
countries rather lacking), whereas what he was looking for was new ideas 
for an embodiment of *enhanced* cooperation.

He was somewhat impatient with speakers who said that "everything is 
fine at the moment". The result is likely to be a new [CSTD] Working 
Group, where he stressed the "work" aspect, to look into this.
