Dear Members, As per the proceedings of the EuroDIG.org plenary no 3 on The Post-JPA Phase: towards a future Internet Governance Model, there has been discussion amongst the European Governments and participants about the role of ICANN and more accountability of it in terms of Internet Governance Forum. There has a need been identified for creation of a "Dynamic Coallition on ICANN Accountability and International Conformity - IAIC" (though proposed in its structure here more sensibly) at the IGF in order to deal with the ICANN related issues more strategically, tactically with a multistakeholder participation within the light of the Tunis Agenda or if not within this context but then realizing that although ICANNs constitutional documents and by-laws require it to co-operate with relevant international organisations and to carry out its activities in conformity with relevant principles of international law and applicable international conventions and local law, there are no related formal accountability arrangements and this can be the first step to create this process. IGF process needs to be kept separate but interconnected with ICANN (though this comment is still very vague). Your suggestions on this proposal would be really useful and I am circulating this to other IG related lists for input and participation. -- Regards. -------------------------- Fouad Bajwa @skBajwa Answering all your technology questions http://www.askbajwa.com http://twitter.com/fouadbajwa http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATVDW1tDZzA
