AW: [governance] Consensus call on IGC statement: please respond

[Eric Dierker]

I vote NO
 
 
Process was ill formatted.  Jeremy clearly did not have the time to guide this process and was an advocate or defender of his positions by fiat not logic and persuasiveness.  All these last minute concerns were voiced and ignored or Jeremy simply did not have the time to study and clarify(understand). Literally no Latino/Hispanic input or outreach and Asian input was negligible. I only noticed "out of Africa" participation but nothing "from" Africa.
 
MAG needs serious reform as it remains an ICANNesque appointment by status quo supporters.
 
There remains here a silencing of voices in any way critical of the old guard and a definite slant toward self and elite cadre aggrandizement. This is reflected with emphasis in the "mushy" statement. No this is not a "great" job. It is in fact a very bad job.

You guys are doing a great job negotiating a complex statement.

Separate statements for different themes have definite advantages: any specific issue can be easily commented upon at the appropriate time during the meeting.

We can still agree on other points during this coming week.

Would it make a difference to your "NO" vote to remove it?  
I can go with the statement if this sentence is removed, and as suggested by Bill the part on intersessional working groups is added, and we work on a separate short statement for theme suggestions for IGF 5. Thanks for your kind consideration. parminder 



Thanks Parminder, that is good news.  I feel confident that Wolfgang, McTim and Bill will go along with this.


Now, we need more votes...
