[DC3] RES: RES: IGF 2016 participation

Hi Ritu, Thanks for this. I just wanted to clarify that we are going to compile good practices on CN using the IGF platform but, as I pointed out in my email of 18/5, this compilation cannot be officially considered as a Best Practice Forum, because the establishment of a BPF requires several bureaucratic requirements that cannot be fulfilled at this stage. (I am copying below the IGF Secretariat explanation on BPF) We can use the IGF website platform for DC outcomes to compile best practices but the compilation will be classified as a DC outcome rather than a BPF outcome. Hope my explanation makes things clearer. Best Luca BPF explanation from the IGF Secretariat: -Topics for BPFs arise from discussions among the MAG, generally during their first face-to-face meeting in the annual IGF cycle. -During the discussion, suggestions are fielded from the floor and they do not necessarily have to come from MAG members (MAG meetings are all open to non-members). But they do have to have loose MAG consensus and approval from the Chair in order for their moving forward to be "formalized" and for the BPF to be established. -This is quite important: a focal point from the Secretariat, a staff member or consultant hired by UNDESA for that purpose, always holds the pen on a BPF output. The contributors to the BPF are varied - they are experts on the topic from any stakeholder group - but the task of writing a final draft and cobbling together inputs/contributions rests with the Secretariat. There has been an established practice of appointing a MAG coordinator for each BPF and they act as a co-organizer and help rally the experts. But this of course is voluntary work, whereas the production of the written output has either a salaried staff member or one-time paid consultant behind it. -Although this may change in the future, BPF work until now has followed the cyclical, annual IGF timeline. So in effect, work is supposed to start at the beginning of the year and culminate with the annual meeting.

I copied and pasted your proposal and made some modifications/tweaks. Please add your suggestions and specify if you want to be a panelist, co-organiser or rapporteur BY THE END OF THE WEEK https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/DC3_Workshop_Proposal_IGF_2016 Also, I compiled all the suggestions in the attached DC3 Call for papers. Please, let me know if I have missed anything. If everything is fine we can share it. (I put my email address as a recipient of the submissions because we do not have an official DC3 email address yet) Lastly, today I spoke with the IGF Secretariat and they confirmed we can use the collaborative platform of the IGF website to compile good practices and propose common principles. I will ask to set up the platform as soon as we define a calendar for the good practice compilation/principles elaboration.
