I'll work with you on this Norbert...

Contra Adam I think framing a letter here might be of significant value if
only to highlight certain of the limitations in those current global
Internet governance processes so highly praised and often referred to by
certain members of this list and others.

[with IGC Coordinator hat on]

Let's develop an IGC Statement on this RFC 6852 "Affirmation of the Modern
Paradigm for Standards" [1].
[1] http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6852

I'll be willing to serve as editor if no-one else volunteers, but I'd prefer
for someone else to take on this role.

Who would like to volunteer?

Greetings,
Norbert
