Thanks Bill. <br>
<br>
I really encourage everyone to sign on. We need to ensure that the
final stages of the WSIS+10 review remain as open to stakeholder
engagement as possible.<br>
<br>
I would be very supportive of a statement from NCUC to this effect
also.<br>

Hi
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Having the UN General Assembly review the WSIS+10 in
a purely intergovernmental setting entails some real risks, and
nongovernmental stakeholders really need to take what
opportunities to weigh in the TBD ‘modalities’ of the
preparatory process allow.</div>
<div class="">
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">This is a really important issue that we have
discussed in the public Internet governance sessions at the
Los Angeles and Singapore meetings, and we will so do so again
in Buenos Aires. We’ve also discussed it a number of times in
the CCW on Internet governance, alas thus far without getting
consensus on submitting a statement. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">So I’m very happy to see ISOC moving forward and
hope this gets individual/organizational member support. If
there were also interest in supporting it at the constituency
or stakeholder group level I’d think that’d be worth
discussing. </div>
