I'm working or see some other people working in at least 3-4 proposals for a panel on Cyber security. Maybe there is a cross effort between several lists?

We can change it to other besides Security as long as you have already something sort out.  To save time I suggest we use all the same setting we used last year that was successful. If we can agree on the subject, the more time consuming and difficult will be to get the speakers, although her ewe might need Bill guidance, I think we can change this a little bit later in order to submit it on time. If you already have a subject to do that we can write down and work around this is your time to talk. All ideas are welcomed, have always been.

>>> Well, I didn't mean to upset the apple cart here, especially since at the outset I’d suggested we might consider security.  But I’m looking now at a multi-person consensus process that has to finish a week from today, coupled with a topic on which many of us may not be subject matter experts, and I’m just wondering if this is sensible or we should try something that would come a lot easier to us?  I organized I think seven approved workshop proposals for NCUC and NCSG between 2013-2015 and they were each time consuming. So I’m inclined to say that if NCSG is going to get something out quickly that meets the MAG’s criteria there’s no time for navel gazing.  Take a topic we know well and can populate easily and start doing it.

We should keep in mind that not all people who attend the IGF are familiar with discussions at ICANN -- and if it is challenging for us (at least for me) to understand what are the borderlines of cybersecurity within ICANN, imagine for people outside it. However, I do believe that this session could contribute to a broader discussion about cybersecurity governance (and thus the identification of overlapping spaces for collaboration and interaction with other actors/institutions within this field).

>>>>> I’m in the middle of organizing another IGF workshop proposal at the moment so I thought I’d flag a couple things. It looks like we have over 30 people in this group, which is great. I don’t know if everyone is equally familiar with how the IGF workshop proposal process works, or how the Multistakeholder Advisory Committee (MAG) evaluates proposals.  But it is an increasingly competitive and difficult business, they usually get well over 200 proposals for under 100 workshop slots, so it’s important to maximize the fit with their multiple and increasingly time-consuming guidelines.  There are about five documents at the URL Martin shared one could look at in this regard.  Bottom line, the proposal needs to be crisp and provocative in content; it needs co-sponsors from other organizations (preferably not civil society); the speakers need to be very multistakeholder and diverse (geo/gender/perspective/etc), and we have to have full contact and other details on them; there needs to be a plan for remote participation; all the roles must be filled, so we need names of people we know will come to Geneva in December; and so on.

I’ve organized workshops at every IGF except last year (including a number of them for NCUC and NCSG) and have never done one of these, I’ve always done 90 minute panels or large roundtables.  Maybe first we should talk about the format we want?  Also, are we set on security? I suggested it on the list when we were chatting about possibilities, but I’m not sure how easy it will be for us to organize something on security @ ICANN in the time available, what are the overarching questions we want to explore, what kinds of people could we get, etc.  So maybe it’d make sense to sort such threshold issues up front?

A few month ago, after a very successful workshop in the Global IGF 2016, we lunched once again the idea to do a workshop for the 2017 IGF, after a few rounds of ideas in discussions we submitted the request to ICANN and they approved our project.At the end of this email I copy the details that outline the idea that we shared with ICANN, originally given by William Drake (a.k.a Bill) in the NCSG list among other good ones.
