I think we can all support the concept, now the question is how to
go about it?<br>

discuss has not yet found commonality of topics that
brings together a coherent focus that brings in a wide
diversity of contributors. That is a fact that we all want
to move past, and we want, undoubtedly, to make 1NET
discuss meaningful. </div>

fourth proposal is that we strive to find subjects from
NETmundial, establish different discussions, and strive to
advance a multi stakeholder discussion that is civil,
statesmanlike, and works to progress commonality where
possible in various topics. </div>

that will require some restraint from all: that will

the IGF was first launched, civility was often lacking in
exchanges. We had an immensely influential spirit guide --
Nitan -- who coached us, mentored us, and today, at the
IGF, we do disagree, often quite strongly and
passionately, but we are civil in the discourse, and in
the disagreements. </div>

NETmundial, a similar spirit emerged. With some defined
topics that can benefit from a broad, civil discussion,
respecting differences, about a broad range of topics. </div>

can benefit so much from thoughtful discussion, informed
discussion, expression of different points of views. But,
I do have a criteria for whom I listen to, and I listen as
much to CS, technical community, governments, as I listen
to business: and that is fact based and civility, even in
different and even passionately held views. The benefit
of 1NET is that I can listen to diverse voices, but I
can't if it is only noise and hostility, and lack of
substance and lack of organization of topics. That is
because it comes across at static. </div>

want to make 1NET a trusted space to talk about tough

with some organization so that participants can select
where/which topics most engage them. </div>

do that, we will make 1NET a truly collaborative, and
contributing to the broader discussions about IG
evolution, and we will build on the spirit of NETmundial. </div>
