Hi Imran,

it was just an example http://www.iab.org/about/workshops/privacy/ and it is
not related to IETF meeting which will be held in Beijing.

>> Dear all,
>>
>>
>> I am sorry I missed the beginning of the discussion. Presidential
>> elections in Brazil (great outcome, by the way!) and a short trip right
>> after it have kept me away for some days.
>>
>>
>> After going through the thread, I would like to make just a few quick
>> comments:
>>
>>
>> 1) *Strategy*: I totally agree with the need for a broader scope,
>> mentioned by McTim. Although IGF is one of the main concerns, there are
>> other important issues that need to be taken into account in order to plan a
>> solid and coherent strategy.
>>
>>
>> Although I am very glad to see many younger people volunteering to be part
>> of the “strategy” group (and I would like to volunteer as well), this is a
>> topic in which the views of more experienced people is fundamental, so I
>> hope it is implied that many of the known “faces” on the list will be there
>> as well!
>>
>>
>> Regarding the *procedure of the discussions* I just have one concern.
>> Strategy is the heart of everything we will be doing, it is the base for the
>> working plan and the outreach (others will be encouraged to join us
>> depending on our positions). Because of the importance of the topic,
>> wouldn’t it be good to carry out this discussion here on the IGC list? This
>> would be positive for transparency and any interested person would have the
>> chance to jump in, lowering the barriers to enter the debate.  I have
>> seen complicated discussions taking place here on the list, and moderators
>> have successfully organized them in different threads. Separate lists could
>> be created to other areas of discussion. Just a though.
>>
>>
>> 2) *Working plan:* I believe the group involved in the working plan does
>> not need to wait for a strategy to be agreed upon. An important task that
>> could start right now would be to work on the document proposed by Wolfgang
>> "Internet Governance 2015: Priorities for Civil Society" (historical
>> chapter, an overvierw about main issues and institutions, etc.). Strategy
>> will be added to this document as rough consensus is achieved.
>>
>>
>> 3) *Outreach:* I agree that to start an effort of outreach, we need to
>> have a clearer idea of who we are and who is missing among us. Do we (or
>> moderators) have an idea? Should we organize a questionnaire, like the one
>> proposed by Sivasubramanian?
>>
>>
>> Just to reinforce, I volunteer to work with strategy and I will assist in
>> every way I can with outreach. We have developed a good network of contacts
>> because of remote participation.
>>
>>
>> Best wishes,
