There are lots of "maps of the ecosystem" in circulation, but there's no 
harm in making another. What will be the cause of some debate, I think, 
is deciding what issues are in fact "Internet Governance". Once you've 
done that, slotting players into a map is fairly easy.

Would you, for example, include the Council of Europe on account of the 
Budapest Convention which has impacts upon network operators to be 
slightly more "law enforcement friendly" than otherwise?
