Dear Friends
Please find attached information about 2 upcoming events that
I think are important for our current discussion. In short, we can not solve the
current ICANN and Internet Governance problem as long as Internet Governance is like a
country where less than 1% are in charge of over 99% of the population and where
98% of the population do not even know that the 1% exist. In the case of IG, the
vast majority of IT users are completely ignorant even of its existence. The
legitimacy and effectiveness of IG is in direct proportion to the ability to
create general awareness and engagement of IT users. The biggest challenge for
all those concerned with IG today is the lack of awareness and engagement of the
vast majority of IT users. If we like it or
not, we have to tackle this problem and I want you to see the attached events in
this context. Everybody is invited, if you are interested, you are more then
welcome. (Just let me know with a quick email)
See you in The Hague and Geneva
Yours
Klaus
