SV: SV: [Privsec] 16-17 Feb: Consultations on Internet GovernanceForum, Geneva

[Rikke Frank Joergensen]

Hi

My point was not for the Berlin group to submit to CFP but to submit to IGF consultations in Geneva in feb, and to get involved in that process. At this stage, it should mainly be key points related to the forthcoming IGF process, since no one will discuss substance at this stage. 

Sorry if I was not clear before.

The next scheduled meeting of the Berlin Group is 6-7 April in  
Washington. Not sure they will want to come back less then a month  
later. However, one of their outcome documents could be presented at  
CFP.

Personally, i think the role and significance of CFP isn't much these  
days. It's not really the cutting edge and significant conference  
that it once used to be.

I think there could be more gained from lobbying for Privacy at the  
IGF that participating at CFP. The big question is - how do we do  
that with now several meetings planned in the next month of so.  i  
think written submissions from this group and perhaps the Berlin  
group are the best way we can at least place the topic on the table.

regards

Robert
