I fully support the "side-event approach" for the case we are not invited.  The proposed Press Release is a good idea. BTW, the multistakeholder concept gets also full support by the draft OECD principles and th Whitehouse Statement  on the US International Strategy for Cyberspace.  However there is still a lot to do, also in clarifying what "CS" is and what the role of the stakeholders is if we want to move from lip service to sustainable, inclusive and transparent actions.

Thanks, Divina.

In future G8 and G20 forums, it would be nice to hold a side event or simply
participate to a session at the Avignon Forum (side-event to the G20) where
all stakeholders would be invited to participate: civil society, business
and the Internet technical community.

On another note, ISOC, ISOC France, the W3C, the NRO and ICANN are preparing
a common press release for the upcoming eG8 (24-25 May), emphasizing the
WSIS heritage and the importance of a multi-stakeholder approach.

Best regards,
Constance Bommelaer

Dear all
A quick follow-up on our open letter to president Sarkozy:
    -it was sent to and acknowledged by the person close to the president in
charge of organizing the event
    -it was sent to and acknowldedged by the person at the Foreign affairs
ministry that follows internet governance issues
    -it was sent to Agence France Presse
    -it has receveid support by Ligue des droits de l'homme
    -Le Monde didn't publish it in its "debate" columns though it did
consider it  and it is going to report on the e-G8
    -it will be debated in two news-programmes on France Culture: "Un jour
sur la toile" (next weekend) and "enjeux internationaux" (30 may)

Please note the proposed action of the French "Quadrature du net" at this
address:

http://www.laquadrature.net/en/eg8-forum-a-smokescreen-for-governmental-cont
rol-of-the-net

There is this idea, rapidly discussed with Constance Bommelaer from ISOC, to
do a civil society/technical community event prior to G20 in Cannes ...

Please let us exchange, if you have other contacts or other news of
activities 

Best
divina
