Amb Karklins made an interesting comment about this in response to an
intervention from israel during the WSIS Ineternet Governance open
consultation.

----
Israel: IG followup should be linked to follow up of WSIS process - as per 
proper guideline Res. 57/270B that sets follow up mechanism with UN 
structure - don't create another process requiring unnecessary money and time
Amb Karklins: (some time later)
on followup: I heard the intervention from Israel re resolution 57/270B. We 
have agreed in principle (though agreement is bracketed) that we will try 
to address follow up to IG issues separately to follow up to other WSIS 
related issues as they are very different and require specific knowledge. 
We know that in 2 years we have learned a lot, how internet functions, how 
it is managed etc, and they are not related directly to other issues we 
address in the WSIS process.
In my view, would be productive to look at follow up to IG separately from 
other WSIS related issues, which could be arranged in accordance with res 
57/270B
------
I almost have a full transcript of the open consultation, which is not in 
any shape to be shared publically just yet, but i shall do my best to write 
them up asap and post here.
