There is cross channel static at several levels here. Since the
core issue here (stakeholder voice and stakeholder interests in
the Internet ecosystem (not just ICANN's remit) ) I will write
more later. <br>
Tied up in other business at the moment.<br>

To paraphrase the American humorist Mark Twain: "Misunderstood
information can be around the world before accurate information
has time to put its shoes on."<br>

Let's want for a bit,and clear the air. There is more than enough
to do at all levels and more than one "deck where there is a call
to deck hands". Let's get the shoes on first. <br>

It is possible i am misunderstanding, but i think the conversation is
cross channeled.
In one case the argument seems to be about how hard it is to get the
NGOs who are all out consumed with their mission on a bare bones (time,
money) budget to do this too.
In one case the argument seems to that we MUST get them involved because
it is instrumental for them to be involved.

BTW, my working definition of multistakeholderism (m17m) as a reference
to where i come from in these discussions:
Multistakeholderism (m17m)
The study and practice of forms of participatory democracy that
allow for all those who have a stake and who have the inclination, to
participate on equal footing in the deliberation of issues and the
recommendation of solutions. While final decisions and implementation
may be assigned to a single stakeholder group, these decision makers are
always accountable to all of the stakeholders for their decisions and
the implementations.
Of course the devil is in the details and implementation is really hard.</font>
