Agreed. It’ll be a good opportunity to work out the ToR.

While I agree with Penghwa that acting quick is essential, APrIGF shall give us another good F2F opportunity to further discuss about the future of this initiative as well. Would encourage any of you here to attend and join the session. More information could be found at http://2014.rigf.asia. The agenda is under development though. Thanks.

I had been travelling for about a couple of weeks and was looking for the draft ToR that Peter had amended. Curiously enough I did not see it until this ToR v3. The ToR includes what I—and I suppose some others too—consider ambitious. I’m concerned that if we take as long as we did in crafting the ToR as our APrIGF CFP template, then many moons might pass. And the APrIGF had the benefit of a couple of runs. May I suggest this: we do the run. And we meet f2f to aim to conclude the ToR. I am proposing a 1-day session because I am thinking of the Indian bureaucrats who may form a sizeable group. It’s really a primer. I’m also concerned that a longer duration would not be manageable. Also, I’m concerned that if it’s too extended, people would have a hard time extending their stay. Appended below is the draft curriculum. Essentially—background+context, the technical aspects (to explain the root server), the stakeholders and their roles, and then the current status. I have highlighted the speaker for PM1 as I was in Sri Lanka and met Rohan Samarjiva and he had expressed interest to attend if we invite him. Rohan is a friend, ex-professor at Ohio State in telecom, a former DG of Sri Lanka Telecom but now heading a think-tank in ICT policy. He is therefore comfortable in both the ITU and Internet space and therefore not hostile to the Internet. Speakers for the other slots are open. Let me know your thoughts. Time Topic Content Speakers (Tentative) Remarks Day 1 AM1 Welcome & Introduction Introduction to the programme The Development of the Internet Sets the context, development and background of key players Historical Context AM2 Infrastructure: How the Internet works DNS, IP addresses, peering, IPv4/6 APNIC(?)

APNIC suggested changes are in the attached version 4 document. With regards to APILP or APIGLP, we prefer with APILP as it is broad and inclusive which can cover a number of topics. 5.1.a This is a very important and is a very big job but who will do it?

I have made some suggested changes in Version 3 of the document which I attach. In proposing these, I note first how much easier it is to critique other's work than it it is to create it - thanks again for the first draft, which sets the scene very effectively. Other than some changes such as numbering and some grammar edits, I think there could be some productive discussion about a couple of items: 1. The name - as its about Internet Governance, it seems sensible to me to include that in the name of the document and the name of the exercise. Its not just about "Internet Leadership" which is being done in many areas, of registry management, law, security etc, but specifically about IG. I think its healthier to acknowledge and display that focus. 2. I am not accustomed to describing the Asia Pacific area as "APAC", so started to re-name it AP - but didn't continue....happy to defer if there is a widespread acceptance of that abbreviation. 3. I am somewhat concerned at the current focus on the domain name industry: I have highlit the term a few times. I think both that there is more to the IG topic than that, and also that the domain name industry can be expected to be busy taking care of itself through such organisations as APTLD, ICANN and the newly formed Domain Name Association ( "DNA"). Although I think we need to be careful about opening the door to an unlimited range of topics, I have added IP address allocation mechanisms, multistakeholderism, online human rights, network security and network neutrality as possible topics. In any event, these should be signals, rather than instructions to those who will eventually draft the actual curriculum. 4. I have separated out and made clearer the tasks of preparing the curriculum from preparing business and financial plans to support it. I hope these suggestion might be thought useful in furthering the discussion - thanks.
