Thanks Bill.

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.

I would be very supportive of a statement from NCUC to this effect also.

Hi

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.

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.

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.

Dear all
The Internet Society has put together a letter calling for an Open WSIS+10 preparatory process. The letter is addressed to the President of the UN General Assembly and it is now online at
https://www.openwsis2015.org/signatories/
The first round of consultations for WSIS+10 should take place the week of the 8th of June, in New York. We hope that with this letter, the process that will follow will include all relevant stakeholders vs. governments only.
I hope you consider signing on to the letter.
Cheers
KK

watching Congress discuss ICANN
the hearings today make it clear what is the priority list for Congressional concern:
Top of the list: copyright protection
next: security, law enforcement

no mention of open access, protection of communication rights, human rights.
