[governance] Results of consensus call on Sarkozy letter

[Jeremy Malcolm]

It is about 48 hours since the consensus call on the letter to President
Sarkozy was made, and so far 62 of 63 unique respondents have answered
affirmatively, with the other respondent abstaining.  The final
statement is now at
http://www.igcaucus.org/open-letter-president-sarkozy-eg8-meeting-plan,
in identical form to the version on which the poll was called, save for
a punctuation correction.

Therefore, we can consider the Caucus in favour of this statement, which
should now be translated and disseminated.  I will liaise with Divina
about that, and with anyone else who has contacts that would be useful
for its dissemination.

For interest and transparency, the details of those who participated in
the poll are below.  However, the letter as usual goes out under the
IGC's name as a collective, without individual signatures.  Having said
that, I suggest - unless anyone objects - we also open it up to
signature by other civil society groups, which signatures can be
collected while the translation is in progress.

Finally and on a different note, we have recently had an influx of new
members of this list, presumably in anticipation of the 2011 IGF
meeting.  Welcome!
