[NCUC-DISCUSS] [NCUC-EC] Replacement on Cross Community Working Group on Internet Governance

[Matthew Shears]

I am a firm believer that this CCWG should exist and it should do so for 
a very specific reason:

(comment from me on another list) /I would like to see a discussion of 
what this WG can do to help enlighten and inform and recommend how ICANN 
the organization involves itself in IG matters.  The value of this WG is 
its expertise and that expertise should help (at a minimum) ICANN in its 
approach, policies and other approaches  to IG generally.  This is the 
greatest (potential) added value of this WG to the organization and its 
community./
