The fairly new requirement to file a workshop report (in order to 
qualify as a possible organiser the following year) should mean that 
there are plenty of reports in circulation. But I have to admit I've 
never gone back and read any of the reports (but I did watch the 
Videocast of a couple of workshops that clashed with others in Vilnius).

The outcomes should be accessible, and while the archive of videocasts 
is good, I think there needs to be more work cataloguing and presenting 
these reports.

It's interesting that you've chosen the Workshop part of the IGF as the 
one with possibly the most useful outcomes. Another indication that the 
Main Sessions are beginning to lose their appeal with many (although I 
wouldn't miss them for the world).
