You would not consider the "accelerating the globalization of ICANN and IANA functions, 
towards an environment in which all stakeholders, including all governments, participate 
on an equal footing" to be truly substantial?

How can there be a proposal of "what should be next" without first having discussions 
of same?  Your faith in "a real proposal" from the Montevideo signatories is appreciated,
but discussions so that "all stakeholders, including all governments, participate on an 
equal footing" is exactly the type of discussion going on globally in places such as the 
IGF, and there is no clear or even emergent consensus yet that I can discern...
