<font size=3>Hi, Wolfgang and all,<br><br>
I understand that in the list below the issues of race and ethnicity,
cultural diversity and communication rights were part of the *etc*. I
suggest they are clearly pointed out in any list regarding critical
themes within the WSIS.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">I think it is important that
speakers have a clear message, both to themes and to procedures. First we
havwe to clarify what we want to communicate to the summit and the other
stakeholders, and then we can discuss who is the most convincing person
able to deliver the right message in a right tone. <br>
<br>
With regard to themes, I think we need statements for<br>
* financing<br>
* human capacity building<br>
* integration of MDG goals and WSIS aims&principles<br>
* IPR<br>
* Internet Governance (both instiutional aspects as well as issue
aspects)<br>
* Gender<br>
* freedom of expression<br>
* community media<br>
* privacy and data protection<br>
* training & research (Divinas Declarration)<br>
* etc.<br>
<br>
With regard to procedures<br>
* multistakeholderism (in general, conceptual aspects)<br>
* follow up & implementation<br>
* possibilities for formalization (an enhanced but simplified version of
the convention idea)<br>
<br>
And again, I say this as a member of the Bureau, the receommednations has
to come from the Caucus and WGs. The CSB is for procedural aspects only.
CSB has to fight for speaking slots, but not to decide about content
related issues.<br>

<br><br>
I still think that after 2 years, it might be a good idea to revisit
<br>
the names proposed in Geneva to see if in fact they are ok for the <br>
Tunis summit - or if we want to consider additional names.<br><br>
The CSB is the body in charge of logistics, but as a bureau member <br>
i'm disappointed that no planning, or discussion of any kind is <br>
taking place on the bureau list. Personally i would prefer that needs
<br>
be identified well in advance so that a discussion and agreement can
<br>
be obtained on how the logistical needs - such as speakers, <br>
overpasses, etc - can be taken done.<br><br>
You and others seem to propose that we just adopt the speakers <br>
suggested from the discussion 2 years ago, well that's definitely a <br>
possibility. Let's see what others have to say - and see if there's <br>
agreement. if so, fine we have a solution. If not, then let's see <br>
which additional names might come up. That's all I propose<br><br>
regards,<br><br>
Robert<br><br>
