Thanks for your input, but I reluctant to add the two extra sections 1 and 2 to our short letter.  I think your number 1 is rather too low-level for the UNSG to be concerned with, as this is a matter for which responsibility has been delegated to the IGF Secretariat.  As to number 2, the UNSG will already have been well briefed on the achievements of the IGF in order to make recommendations on its continuation, so I am not convinced that this is the right occasion to rehash that history.

If anyone else agrees with you though, I am open to persuasion.

I will post the next revision tomorrow, workload permitting.
