VS: [Mmwg] Just for fun .. huh?

[Wolfgang Kleinwächter]

Background:
 
During the recent IGF Consultation Prof. Milton Mueller from Syracuse University discovered the "man off the street" in Salle XXIII of the Palais des Nations in Geneva.
 
see. http://mm-images.blogspot.com/
 
He described the appearance of the "man off the street" with the IGF Badge, as a "bizarre experiment". He announced, that he will keep the case "under observation" and promised to report back on a later stage. 
 
This announcement has provoked a number of questions in the broader community with regard to a "New Observation Model", based an a "New Observation Protocol" (NOP).
 
Bill Drake one of the activists in the civil society movement, has identified the NOP issues as a new dangerous threat to the Global Internet Community as a whole. He has announced to launch a counter campaign under "stopnopnow.com". He also proposed to organize a first conference for strategy building with regard to the new challenge, which came for the majority of Interrnet stakeholders in general and even the listmembers in particular as a big surpise. 
 
Nevertheless, Bill Drake initiative already generated support. In the shadow of governmental ignorance (sic!), an Interim Ad Hoc Committee has started to draft a first outline for the proposed conference which is planned now for February 2007, in Trinidad. 
 
Attached is the first draft. Speakers are not yet confirmed. Please add your comments.
