Hi,

IMHO the work of Kieren is mitigated especially since his involvement in that issue of incivility (I think that he made some recommendation on his leaving report about) which is just a kind of hidden moderation.
Nick will have more powers than Kieren had before.

Yes he announced it before the Seoul meeting that he was leaving I believe after
the IGF meeting. He got recently married and now Nick Ashton-Hart has moved
to a position that replaces Kieren former role.

Regards
Jorge
