Hi,

Ooops, I missed the 2013 in your plans.   I knew I would get something wrong when I set out to reply to your message.

And while I am not sure this is the option I support, I completely agree that by IGF 2013, some option should be well along and the IGF plan should include it. 

Finally, of course I would have tried to timeshare between the pre-events.  
And in good old IETF/IGF spirit I will join a mailing list when one is created, wherever it is created.
(I am not sure that using the IGC list is the right idea, as mentioned in the draft, but a private list is ok, there are lots of those)
