One way to be proactive is to bring back IGF at ICANN, both during the ICANN
meetings and intersessionally, and shape the WG as one that will be
emphatic about the need for Technical standards and technical coordination
to remain distinctly independent, while at the same time asking to
eliminate provocations, if any, for the pointless "tech-nationalism" .
IGF at ICANN can not only bring together stakeholders in their respective
roles, but also serve as a principal platform.
