Dear Carlos<br>
<br>
I forwarded your question to the NMI secretariat. <br>
<br>
They answered me that:<br>
- If the nominee is from the staff of the entity, it would be more
appropriate that he/she is nominated for the technical community
seats.<br>
- If the nominee is a representative of one of the various sectors
(government, business, civil society, academia / technical), then it
would be more appropriate that he/she is nominated for the seats of
the respective sector.<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
<br>
Flavio<br>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hi
<div><br>
</div>
<div>FWIW I guess it should be noted that there are two
other NCSG nominees besides João, namely Wolfgang
Keinwachter and myself.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Those who didn’t join the Dec. 4 NMI public Q&A
might want to listen to the recording <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://www.netmundial.org/archives" target="_blank">https://www.netmundial.org/archives</a>.
I pressed Fadi pretty hard to publicly agree to what
Rick from WEF been saying all over for a half year, i.e.
that the main purpose is to be a project facilitation
platform rather than a mechanism for proposing
governance norms/policies, which would be inappropriate,
and the fear of which has generated negative reactions.
I also suggested that the “solutions” language on the
website should be reworked to make clear to make this
clear and delete references to policy and regulatory
recommendations as possible outputs, and he said they
would. Virgilio agreed as well. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On the basis of these assurances from the trinity, I
went ahead and applied for one of the academic slots, as
Wolfgang had done. I did not seek any ‘endorsements’
given that there are 3 GigaNet (academic) candidates and
civil society seems so divided, including here.
Hopefully that doesn’t work against me but whatever.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As they were slow to do anything about the website
text I also followed up with the trinity and pushed
harder them to make changes. In consequence, I’ve just
been contacted by the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://CGI.br" target="_blank">CGI.br</a> person
who is staffing the initiative asking for input on a
revised text, hopefully that will be posted soonish.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also did a call yesterday with an academic group
(the Gov Lab at New York U.) that is doing one of the
initial projects, a mapping exercise of IG issues and
institutions that is supposed to feed into providing the
sort of informational clearinghouse functionality I’ve
argued for e.g. at the Istanbul IGF and in the little
book we did on NETmundial roadmap implementation. <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://thegovlab.org/do-we-need-a-map-on-the-road-to-distributed-internet-governance-findings-from-interviews/" target="_blank">http://thegovlab.org/do-we-need-a-map-on-the-road-to-distributed-internet-governance-findings-from-interviews/</a>
Inevitably, there are issues with this project to be
worked out over time, but I think it demonstrates the
sort of thing the NMI could productively support and
which one would think would not be too controversial, as
it’s hardly ‘privatizing’ governance discussions or
decisions, it’s just trying to create a tool some
stakeholders might find useful in searching for
information. In a similar vein is the <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://CGI.br" target="_blank">CGI.br</a> project on Best Practices
for Local Multistakeholder IG Structures <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://www.netmundial.org/best-practices-local-multistakeholder-ig-structures" target="_blank">https://www.netmundial.org/best-practices-local-multistakeholder-ig-structures</a>.
Both these activities were briefly alluded to in the
Ilves report and the NETmundial statement.</div>

<div>Dears,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
I will nominate myself tomorrow, so I'm
worried to some "Civil Society" candidates
from Brazil that are trying to fill a slot
for civil society with private sector
agenda.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also I've opened one page to collect
endorsements, fell free to check and sign

<div>Depending on which version of

"platform" for exchanging ideas
and hooking up with others; or
NMI will create "solutions" to
be adopted into legislation and
regulations to solve all the
non-technical cyber issues in
the world.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So far, there are not many
nominations to the Coordination
Council from civil society - for
a lot of different reasons
including dissatisfaction with
some of the organizers' handling
of the initiative to date. And
there is skepticism of NMI's
utility and its sustainability
beyond Fadi's march to Davos
early next year, but if anyone
wants to spend their time trying
to make the best of it, here's
your chance.</div>
