Thanks very much for your suggestion. While we will submit the text, we plan to speak further to it during the WTPF and will highlight the role of regional peering groups.
There is a reason that we did not provide a more detailed response to Opinion 1. An initial response on this opinion was given by ISOC and I believe they intend to submit a more thorough response to this particular opinion. I suggest you speak further with ISOC regarding their planned text submission on Opinion 1.
Please contact Sally Wentworth @ ISOC about this. She can be reached at <wentworth@isoc.org> and I have CC'd her in this message.
I look forward to seeing you in Dublin.
I think the NRO text is troubling. It talks about multistakerholderism but it fails to invite, or as I would prefer recommend (not to say demand) that the ITU work and support inside existing frameworks rather than create competing efforts. I think it's important that this is clearly spelled out and not just talked over or mentioned. If the NRO isn't changing this statement (that I think is far from clear) then I really hope that ISOC includes this and stresses the importance of the ITU not working against or outside established and well working efforts.
