AW: [governance] USG forms subcommittee on global Internet governance

["Kleinwächter, Wolfgang"]

Avri,
 
the multistakeholder participation is reflected in the footnote where it is said that the phrase "private sector" is understood (under the Federal Advisory Committee Act) as "individuals and entities outside the Federal government such as, but not limited to the following: non-Federal sources, academia, State, local or Tribal governments, individual citizens, the public, NGOs, industry associations, international bodies."
 
I do not know whether "international bodies" include the ICANN, ITU or the IGC, anyhow it remains to be seen how this will work. The mandate of the group expires March, 7, 2014.   
 
Wolfgang

This one certainly misses the point about multistakeholder participatory democracy.
