While this was not a matter of technical work for the IETF, we all did recognise the impact of policies, treaties, and governance structures on the Internet. The feedback from the session was positive, and I have asked the IAB to arrange similar sessions in some upcoming meetings when and if there is interesting issues to hear about.

However, since then there has been many developments and proposals in the Internet governance space, I think largely inspired by the recent revelations on pervasive monitoring. Or enabled by the discussion climate caused by them.

But after that we will also provide a report from the IGF (Internet Governance Forum) meeting that is being held this week. And finally, discuss whether additional work is needed and if so, how that might be organised.
