Hi Norbert, 
 
would it make sense to discuss before the meeting what the IGC position is on "harmony in cyberspace"? 
 
I personally would not subscribe any understanding of "harmony" which delegates some decision making power to a (Governmental? Non-Governmental?) "referee" who would tell users what is in harmony and what is against harmony. Ethical issues are difficult to define and it is nearly impossible to reach consensus among different cultures.

Betreff: [governance] CS Participation in the High-Level Leaders Meeting



Dear all

According to information that had just been communicated by Donny (a
civil society member of the Indonesian multistakeholder committee
organizing the IGF), civil society people interested in getting invited
to the "High Level Leaders Meeting" which takes place on the day before
the IGF should email anisa at igf2013.or.id with cc: to dbu at donnybu.com
and include in this email in particular the following information:
name, country, passport data. The deadline for this is "as soon as
possible, within next week".

According to a draft "term of reference" document, the "High Level
Leaders Meeting" is intended to formulate and adopt by consensus a
"BALI DECLARATION OF CYBER ETHICS PRINCIPLES to achieve safe [sic],
peace, and harmony in cyberspace toward economic prosperity."

Greetings,
Norbert

Recommendations for effective and constructive participation in IGC:
1. Respond to the content of assertions and arguments, not to the person
2. Be conservative in what you send, be liberal in what you accept
