HI All,
I do like the mind map as it captures the capacity building activities that were discussed. As for the definition of Open Internet, I recall we discussed the following definitions or qualifications of the phrase. During the call I had defined Open Internet as standards based, adhering to the W3C guidelines and standards. It means that the network must be inter-operable and accessible. I also see an Open Internet as being more inclusive it is a network that is stable, scalable, agile, secure, profitable, sustainable and ultimately equitable. An open Internet provides the ability for civil society groups, indigenous communities and others to take an active part in the network. However, I also see the term Open Internet as encompassing a bit more such as making sure that the Internet is accessible to everyone and this also speaks of capacity building to avoid Internet shutdowns. Internet Shut downs close down the Internet and we want to make the Internet as Open as possible
Looking forward to the call tomorrow
Best,
Judith _________________________________________________________________________ Judith Hellerstein, Founder & CEO Hellerstein & Associates 3001 Veazey Terrace NW, Washington DC 20008 Phone: (202) 362-5139 Skype ID: judithhellerstein Mobile/Whats app: +1202-333-6517 E-mail: Judith@jhellerstein.com Website: www.jhellerstein.com Linked In: www.linkedin.com/in/jhellerstein/ Opening Telecom & Technology Opportunities Worldwide

Per the discussion during the last CCWG meeting, staff has worked with the co-chairs to develop the attached mind map which aims to regroup the objectives based on the survey results as well as the subsequent discussions. Note that:
As a result of this regrouping some objectives have been excluded as specific priorities but one could envision how projects that may focus on some of those areas could also fit within the current identified objective and priorities. The mind map flags that further work will be needed to define or explain the term ‘Open Internet’. As a number of you indicated in response to the survey, the topic of auction proceeds cannot be considered as an objective of fund allocation and as such will need to be considered separately. It will be up to the CCWG to determine whether that is a discussion that needs to be held now or whether it can be parked for a later date. The mind map also aims to cluster a number of examples along the lines of the objective & priorities identified that have been suggested in response to the survey that seem to provide sufficient detail to allow for an evaluation of whether or not the proposed example is consistent with ICANN’s mission. Note that this evaluation will still need to take place.
You are encouraged to provide your feedback on the proposed regrouping of objectives/priorities as well as the clustering of examples ahead of the next meeting of the CCWG which has been scheduled for Thursday 10 August at 14.00 UTC.
Best regards,
Marika
