[governance] Fwd: CS members to the HLLM

Are we not asking for a parity with business reps in terms of numbers 
and speaking slots - and BTW do we have an idea how this HLM (high level 
meeting) is structured.... This year it is called high level leaders 
meeting instead of high level ministerial meeting, presumably to 
accommodate business sector leaders ( ICANN and ISOC were already in at 
Baku HLM). Is this a big meeting with a very large number of attendees 
and just a few speakers, or more of a round table kind of interactive 
thing.... I heard stuff like 40 CEOs already listed... So how does this 
really work....

I understand that it has the status of pre events and is not an IGF 
event per se, and thus not really under the MAG but with the local hosts 
to organise. Although for the Baku IGF, the high level 'ministerial' 
meeting is mentioned on the main IGF page and not on the pre events 
page, which does list other pre events..

It is therefore important for us to be clear on the status of the HLM - 
whether it is IGF or not... Also, this meeting does come up with a 
declaration.... and since there is no other specific declaration etc is 
adopted at the IGFs, with time,  it can be excepted/ feared that this 
HLM declaration will become 'the' declaration coming from the IGF.

Also, will be important to know who is going to draft the expected 
declaration, and how...

Last year the declaration was on a very general topic "challanges of a 
hyper connected world", However cyber -ethics is a much more complex and 
sensitive issues, so we better be more careful on this...
