In a 17 May 2006 press release, United Nations Secretary-General
Kofi Annan established "an Advisory Group to assist him in convening
the Internet Governance Forum (IGF), a new forum for
a multi-stakeholder dialogue on Internet governance." Daniel
Dardailler, W3C's Associate Chair for Europe, will represent W3C on the
new Advisory Board. W3C looks forward to sharing its experience in
distributed consensus-building within this new international
environment for standardization.
