<div dir="ltr">Hi Adam, <div><br></div><div style>Are we till going to call the multistakeholder a steering group? I had shared earlier that this was a very confusing term. A multistakeholder led process being steered? The advisory approach that is common around other regional and country IGF's should be considered. There is no harm in having a MAG here. The ArabIGF also adoption the MAG term for its multistakeholder group. </div>

<br>
Cheryl and I offered to edit the text of the draft operating<br>
principles, section 6, membership, about "quorum". We propose as new:<br>
<br>
For the affirmative vote to be quorate 3 of the 4 recognized<br>
stakeholder groupings, as identified in section 4 "Organizational<br>
Principles" of this document; Must have at least 5 votes cast by<br>
individuals having previously established their Stakeholder Group<br>
affiliation.<br>
<br>
(old text: The quorum for any vote or decision by the MSG will be set<br>
at 20 voting members, with at least 2 individuals having established<br>
affiliation with each recognised stakeholder grouping.)<br>
<br>
Minium 20 members must vote, 5 members from 3 of the 4 groups.<br>
<br>
Comments please,<br>
<br>
Adam<br>
