  Dear members of the list
Please find the message from Robin Gross on the planned meeting in Athens.
Some issues are of concern to us, mostly openness and diversity. You are
welcome to make single contributions or to start an offer for a contribution
from the taskforce. None is mutually exclusive!

Friends,

Some news from the IGF Advisory Group meeting in Geneva:

The 30 Oct. - 2 Nov. 2006 inaugural meeting of Internet Governance Forum
(IGF) in Athens will have a lot of opportunities for discussions on a
wide variety of Internet governance topics. This is my call for
participation from civil society for contributions to help shape this
meeting in a positive way.

The four main themes for the Athens meeting are:
* 1. OPENNESS*
- Free flow of information, ideas, and access to knowledge
*
2. SECURITY*
- Building trust online
- Protecting users from spam, phishing, viruses
- Maintain security while protecting privacy

* 3. DIVERSITY*
- Multilingualism including IDN and promoting local content
- Respecting geographical diversity

* 4. ACCESS*
- Internet connectivity, policies and costs

The agenda and schedule is shaping-up as follows:
http://www.intgovforum.org/table.htm

A call for papers has been issued on these 4 main themes and I'd like to
encourage people to make submissions. *THE PLENARY SESSIONS AND
WORKSHOPS AT THE ATHENS MEETING WILL BE BASED ON THE CONTENT OF THESE
SUBMISSIONS. * So, please, contribute to this process and help to shape
this meeting in a positive way by submitting papers to the IGF. The
deadline is 15 July 2006 for your submission to influence how the event
is programmed.

Here are the details:
http://www.intgovforum.org/athens_outline.htm

Additionally, there are two over-arching themes that should be taken in
consideration in each issue that the IGF discusses: (i) development /
capacity building, and (ii) civil liberties / human rights.

I would suggest contributions on some possible (in no way exhaustive)
sub-issues within these 4 main themes of openness, security, diversity,
and access:

1. OPENNESS:
- Freedom of expression rights
- Free flow of information
- Access to knowledge
- Impact of intellectual property rights to free expression and free
flow of info
- Promotion of accessible public domain
- Government censorship on Internet
- Corporate censorship on Internet
- Impact of technological protection measures and anti-circumvention
laws on free flow of information
- Impact of software patents on freedom of expression

2. SECURITY - building trust online, protecting users from spam,
phishing,
viruses, maintain security while protecting privacy:
- Civil liberties concerns from government surveillance programs
- Privacy rights and consumer trust of Internet
- Role of free and open source software in promoting information security
- Impact on freedom of expression from spam and content filtering
- Publication of WHOIS database on Internet and privacy and consumer trust

3. DIVERSITY - multilinguism through IDN, local content, and
geographical diversity:
- Ability of ICANN to meet needs of international Internet community
- Role of Creative Commons licenses to promote local content
- Ability of non-proprietary development and licensing schemes to meet
local needs

4. ACCESS - Internet connectivity, policies and costs:
- Open standards
- Interoperability of technology
- Role of free and open source software to provide access

I hope you will consider making a contribution to this dialogue. Please
let me know if you have any questions.

Be sure to check out the IGF website for many more details:

Thank you,
Robin
