[WSIS CS-Plenary] VL: VS: [Mmwg] Just for fun .. huh?

Mon Mar 6 17:47:31 GMT 2006

Dear Wolfgang
Please let us know ASAP if our list is to select the keynote speakers for this very high level event in Trinidad, because of the "short time" left for this process (remember Geneva and Tunis).
Any way, I couldn't stop laughing  until the very last line of your excellent sketch !  FYI : With the notable exception of M. Utsumi, I neither could see smile any from the organizers of the Action Line Meeting (ALM) held on February 24th in Geneva. I think this phenomenon could be a preliminary sign of birds flu ...
Best for you
Jean-Louis Fullsack

> Dear list members,
> 
> wsis, wgig and icann life is so difficult: Did you see some smile on the face of members of the board, chairs of sub-committees or holders of governmental badges? So relaxe and enjoy what is going on in the parallel world of the IGF preparations (it is from the mmwg list and I was encouraged to distribute if on a braoder scale):
> 
> BACKGROUND
> 
> During the recent IGF Consultation Prof. Milton Mueller from Syracuse University discovered the "man off the street" in Salle XXIII of the Palais des Nations in Geneva.
> 
> see. http://mm-images.blogspot.com/
> 
> He described the appearance of the "man off the street" with the IGF Badge as a "bizarre experiment". He announced, that he will keep the case "under observation" and promised to report back on a later stage.
> 
> This announcement has provoked a number of questions in the broader community with regard to a "New Observation Model", based an a "New Observation Protocol" (NOP).
> 
> Bill Drake one of the activists in the civil society movement, has identified the NOP issues as a new dangerous threat to the Global Internet Community as a whole. He has announced to launch a counter campaign under "stopnopnow.com". He also proposed to organize a first conference for strategy building with regard to the new challenge, which came for the majority of Internet stakeholders in general and even the listmembers in particular as a big surpise.
> 
> Nevertheless, Bill Drake´s initiative already generated support. In the shadow of governmental ignorance (sic!), an "Interim Ad Hoc Committee" (IAHC) has started to draft a first outline for the proposed conference which is planned now for end of February 2007, in Trinidad. Robert Guerra meanwhile was succesful, as he wrote, "to convince an anonymous funder who is willing to fund participation of up to 400 participants from Antarctica who were profiled in the March of the Penguin."
>
