Each session (with the exception of the welcoming and wrapup sessions) is split into two parts of equal length.
Sessions will last 90 minutes. Each session will start with the presentation of an edge case that highlights the issues related to the Net as a public good in that domain.  The edge case presentation will last 20 minutes and the remaining 70 minutes will be devoted to broadening and generalizing the discussion.  The session moderators will attempt to move the discussion in a way so that concrete issues related to policy development (organizational and governmental), research agenda (what is unknown and what needs to be known), and technological development (how can technologies be developed to help in the domain) will be outlined.


The first half of a session is a mix of brief edge case presentations, followed by group discussion.  The edge cases are meant to help seed the discussions.  If needed, the session coordinators will keep the discussion on topic.
Since our group size is fairly small we will strive to include everyone in the discussion.
 
The second half of a session is structured as a breakout - people self-organize into groups to work on particular issues or areas of interest. During the breakout sessions, participants should work to polish the relevant parts of this wiki.


During each session, we'll work to record and otherwise document what we learn. In particular, we want to capture things like:

Overview

Sessions will last 90 minutes. Each session will start with the presentation of an edge case that highlights the issues related to the Net as a public good in that domain. The edge case presentation will last 20 minutes and the remaining 70 minutes will be devoted to broadening and generalizing the discussion. The session moderators will attempt to move the discussion in a way so that concrete issues related to policy development (organizational and governmental), research agenda (what is unknown and what needs to be known), and technological development (how can technologies be developed to help in the domain) will be outlined.

Since our group size is fairly small we will strive to include everyone in the discussion.

During each session, we'll work to record and otherwise document what we learn. In particular, we want to capture things like:

  • what was discussed?
  • what needs to be researched?
  • what do the discussions make us want to do?
  • who should we share this information with?
  • what things are urgent and critical?
