Thanks Jordan: key are paras 61 to 64 which establish an entirely new follow-up process, which most probably would attract all attention on digital governance issues, and de facto would render existing processes (such as IGF) quite disempowered… There is as well a narrative of clustering the IGF and Internet governance as a merely technical matter, which is not pertinent to other aspects of the GDC (see Paras 25:26 and how they stand v-a-v the rest)… just some first personal impressions… Jorge ________________________________ Von: Jordan Carter via wsis20 <wsis20@icann.org> Datum: 2.

On a quick first read, the role of the technical community has been recognised, and the follow up process proposed is through existing mechanisms, not a new Digital Cooperation Forum. Those seem to be wins. Cheers Jordan Jordan Carter Internet Governance and Policy Director .au Domain Administration
