Thank you Stephanie, Jeanette and all who have been diligently working on
this to make it an IGF 2014 outcome.
Yes, I tried to mention this on the pad but I see that is not included
here. Even nowadays, the UN indulge in crowdsourcing so I think they will
understand the idea that there are remote/online participants that are
initial signatories to this call. So I suggest to add a phrase (as I did on
the pad version) to the "undersigned participants at the 2014 IGF in
Istanbul" reflecting the involvement and early endorsement by members of
the Internet global multistakeholder community (not present in Istanbul).
Unless you intend to hand over to UN officials a physical copy of the
letter right on the spot with handwritten signatures on it.

In addition to that, I've spotted a couple typos in the text and thought I
might as well send out a markup version as attached.
Thanks again,

Mawaki
