A draft Action points paper was distributed, prepared by Brazil and
Brazil explained.
This is not consensus paper, per se. But say "close to". But details
often create
huge gap in positions.

Now we are discussing about the WG Report - timing, composition of
drafting group, etc.

Action points approved by the plenary

The discussions took place in a constructive way and in a friendly environment

that the next meetings will be held in Geneva, during week days.

The chair of the Working Group took note of the concerns presented in
the plenary about the representation of developing world among the
stakeholders, considering that 6 out of 15 are from developing
countries and the necessity of improving means for the selection
process that considers an effective application of the principles of
inclusiveness, diversity of ideas and equal representation between
developing and developed countries in all stakeholder groups from
business community, private sector and civil societies.

The plenary also agreed that IGF shall have outcomes and these
outcomes shall be sent to relevant international organizations related
to Internet Governance issues. The outcomes of IGF meetings shall be
considered to be a non-binding, non-negotiated text that will reflect
convergence where they exist and capture alternative options where
there are differing views and alternative suggestions.

The plenary of the working group agreed that the list below are the
key elements of the discussion and decided to submit it as an open
questionnaire to receive the inputs from all stakeholders, to be
answered until 15 of March.

2) Improving IGF with a view to linking it to the broader dialogue on
global Internet governance as directed by UNGA resolution
3) How to enhance the contribution of IGF to socio-economic
development and towards IADGs including enhancing participation of
developing countries.
4) Outcomes of IGF meetings be sent to relevant organizations.
5) Outreach to and cooperation with other organizations and for a

6) Inclusiveness of the IGF process and of participation at the IGF

countries)
7) Working methods of the IGF, in particular improving the preparation

8) Format of IGF meetings
9) Financing the Forum (exploring further options for financing)

An informal drafting group will meet two days before the next meeting
of the Working Group in order to compile and review all the inputs
received at the various stages, including the transcriptions of the
first meeting and identify convergence of views or the different views
on each topic, without creating any new content on its own. This draft
report will be submitted to the second meeting of the working group.
