I do not see as viable. Better to think in another more practical solution.

So, as I understand things, we want to convince the governments of the world to enter into a new treaty where there does not seem to be a huge amount of current interest. But not a regular treaty, but one in which governments sign onto it, but cede much of their power to civil society, academics, the technical community and business. Oh yes, and End Users, a rather undefined term in their context.

I'm really good at putting large efforts into difficult projects, because there is merit in their success, but this one sounds just a bit (ok, a lot) too "iffy" for my comfort.

Olivier,

I got from Thomas's email that he proposes that we go outside of current norms and create a multistakeholder treaty model that incorporates all our stakeholder groups. Of course it doesn't exist now but we are in a transition phase so perhaps its timely.

The Treaty Model which Parminder argues for requires signature from UN
Member States.
http://www.un.org/en/member-states/

Where is Civil Society?
Where are End Users?
Where are the Technical & Academic Communities?
Where is the Private Sector?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
