Dear John,
there are always two faces to a coin. I am quite glad to hear an USSH 
participative opinon, our eventual decision being to join forces or not.

If I had to define myself as an IUser, I would say that I am 
multistakeholderist and anti-pluriparticipativist, as far as I 
understand those terms. Also, I understand the concepts of the WSIS 
and accept that one may lobby to refine a favorably brain washed 
understanding (in keeping in mind the non-English binding versions) 
but I have not the singlest idea of what "the community" may be 
(except the USSH Inc.: the US StakeHolders Incorporated in Montevideo?).

A common polynym vocabulary would be of the essence for our global 
world (or is it the total world? what is the adjective for "whole" as 
in "the whole is larger than the sum of its parts"?)
This should be the first task for an international meeting.

Correct:

- What USSH wants for three decades (our 1984 opposing agreement, cf. 
RFC 921) is the IANA under multistakeholder cooperation on an equal 
footing for every government and ... US coordinated. You know centers 
in LA and Turkey and Singapore. Everyone can participate ("Public 
comment periods are provided before final standards approval and 
adoption" ... by USSH without appeal procedure): 
pluriparticipatism!=multistakeholderism !!!

- ITU wants every Telcos too within the equal footing. Never mind, in 
case we really get a conflict, the real emergency back-up root is at 
Public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4). I am ready to the end of the years 
old "IANA war": http://googliana.org.

- What we want is the IANA to be under concerted multistakeholdership 
on an equal footing for everyone, including you and me.

>I imagine that both topics will enjoy significant discussion at the meeting.

Be sure discussions will start before the meeting. Actually, they 
have started (http://bramsummit.org).
