[governance] Round III - 15 from non-gov stakeholders 5+5+5

Fri Dec 17 13:26:42 EST 2010

Respectfully disagree, Lee.

Let's see the end of it today and then, depending on the final outcome (that
does not look good), seriously consider boycott.

M. Sha, in the consultations on enhanced cooperation, repeatedly used the
exact wording of the CSTD/ECOSOC/UNGA resolution to hammer that the question
of the relationship between IGF and enhanced cooperation (separate but
complementary) had been finally set and that we should all stick with the
letter of this resolution.

Why should it be the case for that statement and not for the very clear
paragraph regarding the group to be set up BY THE CHAIR of the CSTD ?

How can a whole day of discussion have revolved around the interpretation of
an absolutely straightforward wording ?

Bottom line : a group composed only of governmental representatives (and
hopefully without the governments that oppose the current "consensus") would
be, purely and simply illegitimate.

Official protest necessary if it goes that way. There are more than 1000
signatures for the previous petition, including Vint on behalf of Google.
The new one should be even louder - and involve the press.

B.
