Dear Anriette and Wolfgang,
I agree with your suggestion and I'm ready and available to support the debate.

Thank you for raising this issue so timely after ICANN 55.

Hi Anriette

you have my full Support and all your arguments are well formulated. 
And as Peter Major, the chair of WGEC, has said in Marrakesh, if the IANA Transition is completed, we have a new point of departure for the discussion.

Dear all

I am not asking for endorsement as it is too late, but just sharing that I have put my name forward within the APC network.

This is a very important working group in my view, and one that can be used to to talk about the role of government in internet governance - what it should be and what it need not be - one of the conversations that seems to always be either truncated, or avoided. I believe that having this conversation, and recognising that there is a role for government and that there is a need for conversation among them does not imply abandoning multistakeholder approaches.

Talking about governments role and about how they interact with one another and about how regulation can counter monopolies without encroaching on rights should and could contribute to creating more inclusive (of nonstate actors) processes at national level and a more open and public internet.

The previous group did make progress but also struggled to really break new ground. Now that the WSIS+10 review has happened, and the IGF has been renewed, and the IANA transition is in process, I think it will  be easier to engage in constructive and critical discussion.

This group has the potential to develop a common understanding of principles for "enhanced" or "effective" cooperation, and come up with proposals for mechanisms that can complement and reinforce existing processes.

Best

Anriette Esterhuysen
