Dear Norbert,

>From among your list of topics to discuss at a possible IGC meeting (which
I agree would be good to have), I think it could be very helpful if we
would emphasise on a (the Internet governance landscape and power
distribution), d (selection processes) and e (the IGC itself) *in their
interlinkages*: how are we going to effectively participate over the next
few months in this changing landscape and how can we strengthen the IGC to
support those efforts?

I also gladly will share some thoughts with you in a person-to-person
conversation - much appreciate the offer.
.
Many thanks,
Anja
