[At-Large] eG8 Forum

[Izumi AIZU]

Hi,　as some of you may have already known,

The Civil Society Internet Governance Caucus, iGC, is very
concerned with the lack of multi-stakeholder participation
with this event..  We have prepared a letter of protest to President
Sarcozy of France as the G8 Chair. We also notice that neither
Private sector or Tech community demanding the inclusion of
Civil Society to this meeting that is somewhat backward action
against equal footing practice of IGF etc.

AtLarge as the component of end-users, not business nor tech
community within ICANN should also feel and hopefully express
the concern close to IGC have.

Many thanks,


izumi
