(via Mark Buell) 

 

https://www.bna.com/trump-backs-internet-b57982085284/

 

President Donald Trump wants to cut funding for a number of federal agencies, departments and programs under a 2018  <http://src.bna.com/m1N> budget blueprint released March 16. But the U.S. presence in global internet governance discussions is one thing that Trump says he won’t cut.

According to the proposal, the Trump administration will continue supporting the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s participation in “multi-stakeholder forums” on internet governance and digital commerce.

Subject: New IGC Co-coordinator: Nominations open until March 31st!
Message-ID: <CABDXvWpjJqNP39ke4QZkR_E-qC7jj3DuXK6Js+ASTeo8TsZLQQ@mail.gmail.com>

Dear colleagues,


It is time to elect a new Co-coordinator for the Caucus, to replace Analía
who has completed her two-year term, and to work with me (Arsene). As you
know, the IGC is operating with two volunteers called “Co-coordinators”.


I would like to apologize for the time it took me to quick start this
process; as you know, we have been busy with migrating our server. We will
be done soon, but the important part has been completed already, thanks to
wonderful people we have on this list as members.


We invite members of the IGC to nominate candidates (please check with them
first about their willingness to serve), or to nominate themselves as
Co-coordinator to serve for 2 years, from 2017-2019. All you need to do is
to send *TO THE LIST* your statement of interest (in the body of an email
and attached in a .doc file) with the following elements:

-          Your full name

-          Your country of origin and of residence

-          Anything we need to know about your work/involvement with
IGC/IGF/Civil Society activities. (200 words max)

-          Why do you think you can be a good Co-coordinator for the IGC?

-          What’s your vision for the IGC during your term if elected? Pick
up to 3 issues in the group you will consider as priority during your first
year.


The nomination period will be open until midnight *UTC on March 31st,
2017*. After
this date, we will circulate a resume of candidate's profiles and enable a
voting link to all IGC members in order to elect our new co-coordinator.

<http://igcaucus.org/charter> <http://igcaucus.org/charter>
<http://igcaucus.org/charter>

<http://igcaucus.org/charter>I do encourage all of you who wish to have a
different experience with international advocacy or Internet public policy
issues to consider applying.


Kind regards,

Arsene

My thanks as well.

Let me add my request to Daniel's:  If the Subject: line can be set to include

	 [governance]

then email filters will continue to perform.  And importantly, list posts will not be threatened to be lost in all the other email clutter.

I also notice that the 'reply to' is the originating poster.  That is 'good practice.'  But it varies from the IGC list's past.  Many may not be aware.  So that attempts to 'reply' may go only to the originator.  Food for thought, as to whether setting the 'reply to' as before, to the list itself.

Again, my thanks.  Not a small effort.

David

After it has been stale for a long time, I intend to not renew the
idgovmap.org domain (which has beginnings of a "map of Internet
governance") when it will come up for renewal or expiry three months
from now.

If someone wishes to take it over, please let me know. Otherwise it'll
go offline at that point.

To Serve AT&T and Comcast, Congressional GOP Votes to Destroy Online Privacy

_Clarifying events_ in politics are often healthy even when they produce 
awful outcomes. Such is the case with yesterday’s vote 
<https://techcrunch.com/2017/03/28/house-vote-sj-34-isp-regulations-fcc/> 
by House Republicans to free internet service providers (ISPs) – 
primarily AT&T, Comcast and Verizon – from the Obama-era FCC regulations 
barring them from storing and selling their users’ browsing histories 
without their consent. The vote followed an identical one last week 
<https://theintercept.com/2017/03/23/the-senate-just-voted-to-sell-you-out-to-advertisers/> 
in the Senate exclusively along party lines 
<https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=115&session=1&vote=00094>.

It’s hard to overstate what a blow to individual privacy this is. Unlike 
Silicon Valley giants like Facebook and Google – which can track and 
sell only those activities of yours which you engage in while using 
their specific service – ISPs can track everything you do online. “These 
companies carry all of your Internet traffic and can examine each packet 
in detail to build up a profile on you,” explained 
<http://fortune.com/2017/03/27/online-privacy-data-collection-verizon-att-comcast-congress/> 
two experts from the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Worse, it is not 
particularly difficult to avoid using specific services (such as 
Facebook) that are known to undermine privacy, but consumers often have 
very few choices for ISPs; it’s a virtual monopoly.

It’s hardly rare for the U.S. Congress to enact measures gutting online 
privacy: indeed, the last two decades have ushered in a legislative 
scheme that implements a virtually ubiquitous Surveillance State 
composed of both public intelligence and military agencies along with 
their private-sector “partners.” Members of Congress voting for these 
pro-surveillance measures invariably offer the pretext that they are 
acting for the benefit of American citizens – whose privacy they are 
gutting – by Keeping Them Safe™.

But what distinguishes this latest vote is that this pretext is 
unavailable. Nobody can claim with a straight face that allowing AT&T 
and Comcast to sell their users’ browser histories has any relationship 
to national security. Indeed, there’s no minimally persuasive rationale 
that can be concocted for this vote. It manifestly has only one purpose: 
maximizing the commercial interests of these telecom giants at the 
expense of ordinary citizens. It’s so blatant here that it cannot even 
be disguised.

That’s why, despite its devastating harm for individual privacy, there 
is a beneficial aspect to this episode. It illustrates – for those who 
haven’t yet realized it – who actually dominates Congress and owns its 
members: the corporate donor class.

There is literally no constituency in favor of this bill other than 
these telecom giants. It’d be surprising if even a single voter who cast 
their ballot for Trump or a GOP Congress even thought about, let alone 
favored, rescission of privacy-protecting rules for ISPs. So blatant is 
the corporate-donor servitude here that there’s no pretext even 
available for pretending this benefits ordinary citizens. It’s a bill 
written exclusively by and for a small number of corporate giants 
exclusively for their commercial benefit at the expense of everyone else.

Right-wing outlets like Breitbart tried hard to sell the bill to their 
readers 
<http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/03/28/house-republicans-revoke-obama-internet-privacy-rules/>. 
But the only rationale they could provide was that it’s intended to 
“undo duplicitous regulation around consumer privacy,” which, they 
suggested, was unfair to telecoms that faced harsher regulations than 
social media companies. To justify this, Breitbart quoted a GOP 
Congresswoman, Martha Blackburn, as claiming that the regulation is 
“unnecessary and just another example of big government overreach.” When 
the Senate GOP voted last week to undo the restriction, Texas Sen. John 
Cornyn invoked the right-wing cliché 
<https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/03/senate-votes-to-let-isps-sell-your-web-browsing-history-to-advertisers/> 
that it “hurt job creators and stifle economic growth.”

But the inane idea that individuals should lose all online privacy 
protections in the name of regulatory consistency or maximizing 
corporate profits is something that is almost impossible to sell even to 
the most loyal ideologues. As Matt Stoller noted 
<https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/847055739315245056>, there 
was “lots of anger in the comments section of Breitbart against the GOP 
for revoking the Obama privacy regs for ISPs.”

     Lots of "This is one of very few Obama-era regulations that should
     have stayed…." Everyone hates Comcast. pic.twitter.com/IODmQAkrnk
     <https://t.co/IODmQAkrnk>

     — Matt Stoller (@matthewstoller) March 29, 2017
     <https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/847056005401923587>

Stoller added that the resentment among even Breitbart readers over the 
vote was based on a relatively sophisticated understanding that the GOP 
Congress was subordinating the privacy rights of individuals to the 
corporate profits of Comcast 
<https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/847057465606881281>, along 
with reinforcing monopoly power 
<https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/847058330505891840> for what 
are really public utilities; as Stoller put it 
<https://twitter.com/matthewstoller/status/847059028387790848>: “it’s 
fascinating, when the political debates are about the use of 
concentrated business power, the debates are no longer as partisan.”

_This recognition_ – of who owns and controls Congress – is absolutely 
fundamental to understanding any U.S. political issue. And it does – or 
at least should – transcend both partisan and ideological allegiance 
because it prevails in both parties.

I still recall very vividly when I attended the 2008 Democratic National 
Convention in Denver. It was just months after the Democratic Congress 
(with ample help from the Bush White House and GOP members) spearheaded 
a truly corrupt bill to vest the telecom industry with retroactive 
immunity 
<https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2012/oct/10/supreme-court-telecoms-win-immunity> 
for having broken the law in allowing the NSA to access their American 
customers’ calls and records without the warrants required by law (that 
was the 2008 bill which Obama, when seeking the Democratic nomination, 
vowed to filibuster, only to then flagrantly violate his promise 
<http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/02/us/politics/02fisa.html> by voting 
against a filibuster and for the bill itself once he had the nomination 
secured).

<https://prod01-cdn05.cdn.firstlook.org/wp-uploads/sites/1/2017/03/attdems-1490797722.png> 

The sole beneficiaries of that bill were AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and the 
other telecom giants who faced serious civil and even criminal liability 
for this lawbreaking. The main forces ensuring its passage were the Bush 
White House and the Democratic Chairman of the Senate Intelligence 
Committee, Jay Rockefeller, whose campaign coffers enjoyed a massive 
surge <https://www.wired.com/2007/10/dem-pushing-spy/> of telecom 
donations immediately before he championed their cause.

The first thing one noticed upon arriving on the DNC grounds was the 
AT&T logo everywhere: they were a major sponsor of the convention, with 
everything from huge signs to tote bags for the delegates carrying their 
logo.

The apex of this flagrant corruption was when AT&T threw a lavish party 
<http://www.salon.com/2008/08/25/blue_dogs/> for the party centrists who 
helped pass the bill – entitled “AT&T thanks the Blue Dogs” – which both 
Democracy Now’s Amy Goodman and I attended 
<https://www.democracynow.org/2008/8/25/at_t_throws_party_to_support> in 
the totally futile attempt to interview the hordes of Democratic 
lobbyists, delegates and corporate donors who toasted one another:

Like most people, I had known on a rational level for quite some time 
that corporate donors dictate what happens in Congress – that they 
literally write the laws – regardless of the outcome of elections. But 
watching that stream of corporate and political power slink in to that 
venue and congregate together in such blatant corruption, and the 
secrecy surrounding it, really underscored the reality of this all on a 
visceral level. That’s the permanent power faction of Washington and 
they try hard, with great success, to make themselves impenetrable to 
outside influences – such as democracy, transparency, and ordinary citizens.

Perhaps this latest episode of pure corporate servitude – this time 
delivered by the Congressional GOP, at the expense of individual 
privacy, with virtually unanimous Democratic opposition – will have a 
similar effect on others, including those who worked to elect this 
Republican Congress.

This, of course, is the “swamp” that Trump vowed to “drain,” the oozing 
corruption of both parties that he endlessly denounced (just as Obama 
did before him in 2008). If Trump signs this bill, as expected, perhaps 
it will open more eyes about how Washington really works, who really 
controls it, for whose benefit it functions, and the serious difficulty 
of changing it even when you elect politicians who swear over and over 
that they oppose it all.

Expert Says NSA Have Backdoors Built Into Intel And AMD Processors

Intel ME dumpintel and comments
http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/117886401/intel-me


Dear friends,

many of us speak and write about encryption, about surveillance, about 
external control. Intel and Samsung, maybe also AMD, IBM/Motorola and 
others, have it installed. The underlayer between OS and hardware. 
Totally controlled from outside and independent of BIOS and OS.

Intel implemented it in the i3, i5, i7. Personal PC environment. And 
servers and workstation? I am sure, it is the same.

The decryption of the encryption makes too much effort. With ME it is 
easy and allways working. This is the reality, not the future.

Our possible answer: Free technology.

many greetings, willi

-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht-----
Von: governance-request at lists.igcaucus.org im Auftrag von Jeremy Malcolm
Gesendet: Di 28.02.2017 20:24
An: Civil IGC Society Internet Governance Caucus -
Betreff: [governance] New Dynamic Coalition on Trade and the Internet
 
The IGF Secretariat has just formally approved the formation of a new
Dynamic Coalition on Trade and the Internet.  Its website is at
https://opendigital.trade/projects/dc-trade and its mailing list is at
https://opendigital.trade/mailman/listinfo/dc-trade.

The formation of the Dynamic Coalition was motivated by the fact that
many Internet governance issues that are discussed at the IGF are also
the subject of rulemaking through bilateral, plurilateral and
multilateral trade agreements. The purpose of this Dynamic Coalition is
to provide an interface for the exchange of information and best
practices between the negotiators of these trade agreements and the
bodies in which they work, and the Internet Governance Forum and its
multi-stakeholder community. This information exchange will be both
substantive (that is, concerning particular Internet public policy
issues) and also procedural (that is, about how Internet public policy
can be developed in a transparent and inclusive way).

Our provisional 2017 action plan is:

 1. To publish a background paper describing the major trade agreements
    that are in place or under negotiation, as well as the venues where
    this takes place, and identifying the key Internet governance issues
    that are the subject of such agreements and negotiations.
 2. To develop a multi-stakeholder approach to facilitating the
    transparency and inclusiveness in international trade negotiations
    and the domestic consultation processes.
 3. To build a network of representatives from trade institutions and
    delegations for liaison with our Dynamic Coalition and the broader
    IGF community.
 4. To hold our inaugural meeting at the 2017 IGF in Geneva to present
    our outputs to the IGF community.

If you are interested to join, please do so by joining the mailing
list.  If you also wish to participate in our web platform (highly
recommended!) you should also separately register an account at
https://opendigital.trade.

Message-ID: <CABDXvWqsqMsiN__-3q6gvWt1i6DuTjQfXXY=CocySJTDhpLSSQ@mail.gmail.com>

[Copied from a colleague from the CSCG]



Dear all,



I'm writing regarding the outcome of the MAG nomination process this year.
As you know, the CSCG ran a nomination process to select candidates to the
MAG 2017 nominations and submitted the three names selected  (Norbert
Bollow, Jeremy Malcolm, Arsene Tungali) by the deadline, 16 December.



The CSCG was informed of the outcome on 27 February. We received the
communication that "there will be no new Civil Society MAG member being
added".

The IGF 2017 MAG has now been been approved by the Secretary-General's
office. The list of members can be found on the following url:
https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/mag-2017-members.
<https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/mag-2017-members>



In response, we have sent the following letter to the IGF Secretariat,
copied in full under the dotted line below. The first Open Consultations
and MAG meeting of the IGF 2017 preparatory cycle are taking place now
(01-03 March) in Geneva, so we expect for this to be brought up during the
course of the discussions there, and to receive a response soon.



Should you have any questions at all,



Best

Arsene, IGC Co-coordinator.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





1 March 2017



Dear Chengetai,



We are writing, as members of the Civil Society Coordination Group (CSCG),
to respectfully express our concern at the notice received via the Internet
Governance Forum’s (IGF) Secretariat, that there will be no new civil
society member added to the Internet Governance Forum's Multistakeholder
Advisory Group (MAG) this year (2017). The reason provided to the CSCG was
that there is no civil society MAG member being rotated out.



The Civil Society Coordination Group (CSCG) exists solely to ensure a
coordinated civil society response and conduit when it comes to making
civil society appointments to outside bodies. Please see the website for
more information on the mechanism: <http://internetgov-cs.org/#about>
http://internetgov-cs.org/#about.



According to the FAQ provided
<https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/mag-renewal-2016>, there
is not a fixed number of civil society representatives. We understood that
one of the current members (Ms. Amelia Andersdotter
<https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/Ms-Amelia-Andersdotter>)
has served three terms and would be be rotated out. On the IGF website
<https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/mag-members-0>, her
affiliation is listed as Civil Society, we therefore do not fully
understand the explanation provided about her past and current affiliation
in your email (dated 27 February) 2017 to us. We understand that, apart
from Amelia Andersdotter's retirement,  another civil society vacancy has
been created by John Dada stepping down over the last year. This vacancy we
understand was never filled.


Once again, it was our understanding from the beginning that at least one,
perhaps two, vacant position(s) was available and to be filled by a Civil
Society representative. The CSCG conducted an open, transparent and
democratic selection process, following which three candidates were
selected. These three names were submitted
<http://www.internetgov-cs.org/2016-12-15> before the deadline to UNDESA
for consideration.


However, the decision to not elect a civil society representative to
replace the outgoing member comes as both a surprise and disappointment to
the CSCG. The selection process conducted via CSCG paid respect to the
factors outlined by UNDESA, “notably: priorities for regional diversity,
with an emphasis on representation from developing and least developed
countries; gender balance; and diversity of institutions and organizations
with which members are affiliated”.


We strongly regret that, following an open, transparent and democratic
selection process, we will not be able to provide a satisfactory
explanation for this situation to the members of the various constituencies
which we represent. Moreover we are concerned about the possibility that
this situation may deter, or at least reduce willingness of, civil society
members to engage in the process going forward considering the time lost
and unaccounted for on this occasion.


While we would like to thank the UNDESA for its leadership we hereby
respectfully request that UNDEA reconsider its decision and agree to
appoint at least one additional representative from civil society on the
basis of our proposal, or, at a minimum, that UNDESA provide further
explanation as to the decision not to nominate a replacement for the
outgoing civil society MAG member.


Thank you for your time and consideration of this matter.

With best wishes,

The CSCG.

Very concrete an to the point letter.

This kind of empties on regulations often give as as a result the discretional use of the rules.

We sincerely hope that our representatives (as civil society) has something to say about this. 

I suggest to copy this letter to that members of civil society in MAG also

Subject: [Dewayne-Net] The FCC Helped Make the Internet Great: Now, It's Walking Away

[Note:  This item comes from reader Randall Head.  DLH]

The FCC Helped Make the Internet Great: Now, It’s Walking Away By Kevin Werbach Mar 3 2017 <http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/fcc-helped-make-internet-great-now-walking-away/>

In this opinion piece, Wharton professor of legal studies and business ethics Kevin Werbach looks at how the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will be impacted by the Trump administration — and what that means for internet regulation. Werbach served as co-lead of the FCC review for the Obama-Biden Transition Project, and an outside advisor on technology and innovation policy to the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign. This article is based on an essay, “Requiem for an Agency,” which he published on Medium.com.

The mantra that regulation stifles innovation is so ingrained these days that we ignore examples which don’t fit the script. That includes the biggest one: the growth and development of the internet. The Federal Communications Commission played an important role over the past 20 years, under Democrats and Republicans alike, in making the digital economy what it is today. Now, under a new president and chairman, it’s making an abrupt U-turn. The Trump FCC may become at best insignificant, and at worst, a tool for mischief and dirty tricks that will weaken the foundations of our democracy.

The FCC wasn’t the source of the internet’s entrepreneurial ideas, technical innovations and massive investments, of course. All that took place predominantly in the private sector. Yet without the FCC, the internet ecosystem today would be different, and in most ways worse: less vibrant, less advanced, less competitive, less open and less reflective of American leadership and values. Along the way, this tiny agency — a tenth the size of the EPA — became a highly visible and important player in critical public policy debates.

Had the FCC not put in place rules ensuring network access for new devices and applications, and opened the unlicensed wireless capacity for WiFi, the internet would never have taken off so robustly in the U.S. In the late 1990s, had it accepted the arguments of industry groups who wanted to impose per-minute charges on internet access, ban internet telephony and subjected small software companies to legacy regulations and fees, the internet as we know it could have been stopped in its tracks. Had the FCC agreed to hold evidentiary hearings to back up Congress’s 1996 decision to restrict “indecent” speech online, the courts may not have been so willing to overturn it.

The FCC has been equally important in the internet’s second act, fueled by broadband and wireless. Despite a late start relative to other countries, the FCC’s National Broadband Plan set forth a detailed and powerful vision. The FCC engaged in the hard work of eliminating economic and technical barriers to broadband deployment and adoption. Most prominently, it wrestled for over a decade with how to ensure the internet remained an open platform for innovation of all sorts. A court decision in June 2016 seemed to finally establish network neutrality as the law of the land, and the FCC as the “cop on the beat” to address discriminatory practices of broadband providers.

The New FCC

Five months later, everything changed.

President Trump’s FCC Chairman, Ajit Pai, is smart, savvy and knowledgeable about the agency and Congress. He talks a great deal about his commitment to rural broadband access. Like virtually all Republicans, however, he wants to scale back the network neutrality rules. The FCC’s first actions on the issue came under two Bush-era chairmen, but most Republicans have always been skeptical of the need for formal broadband non-discrimination rules. Ironically, that now puts them out of step with the industry. Though still opposing classification as a regulated common carrier and some of the FCC’s specific requirements, virtually every major broadband operator is on record endorsing what would have been considered strong net neutrality rules in 2004 or even 2008. They’ve lived with net neutrality requirements for the better part of four years now, and the sky hasn’t fallen.

Pai and his compatriots, however, believe that today’s rules need to go. They say they’re returning to the internet policies of the Clinton administration, when regulatory humility held sway. They suggest that in walking away from network neutrality, privacy, security, consumer protection and broadband adoption programs, they’re following a similarly enlightened “light touch” path. They’re wrong.

Regulatory humility in 1997 would have meant letting telephone companies impose usage-based charges on internet access; keeping voice over the internet under the requirements for traditional phone service; letting the International Telecommunication Union take over global internet governance; and standing by as influential countries adopted internet content restrictions, and registration requirements for access providers as well as other burdensome requirements. It took guts and confidence for the FCC to stand up against all those interests on behalf of a few million geeks, because it believed in the internet’s potential.

Similarly, Chairman Pai’s swift action in ending the FCC’s investigation into potentially discriminatory “zero rating” practices, disqualifying providers in the Lifeline low-income broadband program, withdrawing reports on successful efforts to promote internet services in schools, and freezing pending security and privacy requirements for broadband providers shows anything but humility. Pai is signaling he’ll do everything he can to change the longstanding course of FCC internet policy.

Dear friends and colleagues

Please accept my apologies for a bulk email (and apologies to those on these lists who do not know me personally) - I wish I had time to write more personal emails, but my time here is running out...

After nine years working for IFLA in the Netherlands (and a further five working for them in Denmark a few years before that doing my PhD) I'm moving on to a new position as the Deputy Executive Director and head of international relations at the new national library in Qatar. I'll start there next month and I'm ready for a change and a new challenge (and perhaps less Dutch rain). The new library is due to open in September and I'm looking forward to helping it get on its feet over the next few years.

I'm going to be carrying on working with international information policy issues - which I'm very happy about - and I hope to run into many of you sooner rather than later. In particular I'll stay working on Internet governance with IFLA, particularly public access, so please do think of me if you need to reach out for anything libraries and IG.

So for now I'll be moving to my personal email address: stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com<mailto:stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com> Please don't hesitate to get in touch!

See you all soon,

Stuart


PS: IFLA has a new Manager of Policy and Advocacy, Stephen Wyber, who is a great guy and a great contact for all your international library needs. He can be found at Stephen.wyber at ifla.org<mailto:Stephen.wyber at ifla.org>

Dear Stuart,

Thanks for sharing this wonderful news with us (and probably a sad one
for your former colleagues at the IFLA), that you are moving for
another position with a new organization. I am sure you are excited
and will do great there.

It was great to have you around as an asset for the IGC, especially in
the area of libraries and we are sad you will be leaving us. We do
hope you will be able to stay around and join us in your new capacity
or if you prefer, using your personal email to interact with list
members. Do you plan on registering to the list with your personal
email?

Also, wanted to ask you to encourage your colleague Stephen to
consider joining the IGC to learn as well as contribute to discussions
and to our work. It would be great if he is willing to register.

I do personally hope to meet you anytime soon and to collaborate in
any new efforts you will be leading on the other side of the world.
Quatar looks like a great place to work from, i hope you enjoy the
heat :)

Best regards,
Arsene Tungali, IGC Co-coordinator

Dear Stuart

From Dutch rain to Qatari heat can be a wonderful ordeal or you

Wish you all the best in the travails that are worth their weight in once
life.

However, the South West and the North West (6 million people) of my country
Cameroun have been without Internet since January 17, despite all the
shouts from around the world.

Dear Stuart,

When I first began to read the message, I was saddened to hear of your
departure. The more I read, however, the more uplifting the message became.
Congratulations on the new position! It is definitely exciting, and I am
delighted to hear that you still plan to stay involved. You have been
instrumental in promoting IFLA and advocating for both public access and
the use of libraries as an empowering space.

@Stephen: welcome! Please let us know if we can assist with your transition
into this new role as well.

My best,
-Michael

Stuart,

We shall all miss you. Thanks to your engagement IFLA has been on the forefront of all battles for public interest and public service. Let's hope we can continue to do so with you in your new vest.
If not, then I wish you to enjoy the sun of Qatar, until you'll not start to regret the rain of Copenhagen and Netherlands... these are the cycles of life...

Big hug.

Giacomo

Dear friends and colleagues

Please accept my apologies for a bulk email (and apologies to those on these lists who do not know me personally) - I wish I had time to write more personal emails, but my time here is running out...

After nine years working for IFLA in the Netherlands (and a further five working for them in Denmark a few years before that doing my PhD) I'm moving on to a new position as the Deputy Executive Director and head of international relations at the new national library in Qatar. I'll start there next month and I'm ready for a change and a new challenge (and perhaps less Dutch rain). The new library is due to open in September and I'm looking forward to helping it get on its feet over the next few years.

I'm going to be carrying on working with international information policy issues - which I'm very happy about - and I hope to run into many of you sooner rather than later. In particular I'll stay working on Internet governance with IFLA, particularly public access, so please do think of me if you need to reach out for anything libraries and IG.

So for now I'll be moving to my personal email address: stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com<mailto:stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com> Please don't hesitate to get in touch!

See you all soon,

Stuart

Dear friends and colleagues

 

Please accept my apologies for a bulk email (and apologies to those on these
lists who do not know me personally) - I wish I had time to write more
personal emails, but my time here is running out.

 

After nine years working for IFLA in the Netherlands (and a further five
working for them in Denmark a few years before that doing my PhD) I'm moving
on to a new position as the Deputy Executive Director and head of
international relations at the new national library in Qatar. I'll start
there next month and I'm ready for a change and a new challenge (and perhaps
less Dutch rain). The new library is due to open in September and I'm
looking forward to helping it get on its feet over the next few years. 

 

I'm going to be carrying on working with international information policy
issues - which I'm very happy about - and I hope to run into many of you
sooner rather than later. In particular I'll stay working on Internet
governance with IFLA, particularly public access, so please do think of me
if you need to reach out for anything libraries and IG. 

 

So for now I'll be moving to my personal email address:
stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com <mailto:stuartjameshamilton at gmail.com>  Please
don't hesitate to get in touch!

 

See you all soon,

 

Stuart

 

 

PS: IFLA has a new Manager of Policy and Advocacy, Stephen Wyber, who is a
great guy and a great contact for all your international library needs. He
can be found at Stephen.wyber at ifla.org <mailto:Stephen.wyber at ifla.org>
