<div>Thank you for filling in or filling out (expanding) this discussion with both contexts and particulars. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think this group has some very basic issues in focus as to <em>inclusion</em> and there may be parallels to be explored e.g. between the movement for a 'People's Assembly' at the United Nations, and also the current human-rights based negotiations for a Convention on Disabilities (toward an International . Treaty).
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Whenever something is said to be intended <strong>'4-all,'</strong> there may be commonalities, and it is very nice to have found this group and be subscribed to it.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Very best wishes, and at your service as well, Linda M F.<br><br> </div>

<div>A recurring typology of who is "in the set" of multistakeholders goes something like: </div>

<div><br> </div>The Tunis Agenda (35) includes:</div>
<div><br> </div>
<div>Intergovernmental Orgs</div>
<div>International Organizations</div>
<div><br> </div>
<div>and recognizes in (36) and recommends in (72) the academic scientific and technical communities.</div>
<div><br> </div>
<div>Another group that is arguing for inclusion is the " Internet Technical Community" Or what I prefer to call it the "Internet Technical Community" In some sense this lines up with the academic, scientific and technical commnities, but is some sense, because of its policy roles (speaking specifically of ICANN and maybe ISOC here) somewhat wider then that definition.

<div>Perhaps I missed one or two (?), but for purposes of discussion and without nominating this as the only possible top level list of course, what might you think of adding: </div>
<div> </div>
<div><strong style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">Individuals.</span></strong></div>
<div> </div>
<div>[And all that might entail]</div></span></blockquote><br> </div>
<div>Yes, they need to be discussed as well. though I still find many aspects of how unaffiliated individuals can be included very confusing as long as we are not intending that they should be represented by some sort of [ad-hoc] affinity grouping.
