This is fine with me, as long as the facilitator leads a real purposeful 
dialogue, and we move towards codifying guidelines and processes.

BTW, I am not sue how enhanced cooperation (EC) falls within a dialogue 
on MS processes. I would think that MS processes should be discussed 
within EC talk. EC is about global public policy making, and it requires 
due multi stakeholder processes to be involved in the process.  That 
part is a bit odd.
